"The most difficult part of writing, I think, is contriving a way to be open to surprise. Not surprise in general, of course: that’s merely another kind of sameness. But the right surprise: the realignment of attention or the rip in consciousness that will advance the argument or the meditation."
~ Linda Gregerson
Study the sequence of paintings and write about surprise!
Ask questions.
What's unlikely?
Create the unexpected shift.
Add a tinge of adventure.
Develop worry into wonder.
Probe the playful. Create dialogue to reveal and revel in
wildness.
Add a change of venue and develop new characters.
