Week 2: Ancestors
FLASH WRITING 2 Thurs Oct. 9th 4pm PT
We do not walk in this world alone. The ancestors walk besides us. They often lead the way. But it can get really hard to hear them sometimes. It takes practice. Connecting with them opens up divine pathways to writing. And if you don’t feel connected to any ancestors, then now’s a good time to dig deep and find someone in this vast world of legendary elders/ancestors to shine towards.
Voice needs lineage. Voice needs community.
Writing Prompt: Who are your Sin Vergüenza ancestors?
Freewrite. List out everything you remember about this person. Give us the government details, the things they loved: favorite flowers, fruits, trinkets, the hard life and soft love sidenotes. How did they embody being a Sin Vergüenza?
7 mins, more if you need/want it
Here is my quick write!
Nyx, this is an excellent recollection of your auntie. The details are crisp and specific. The camel cigarettes and the Jack Daniels mixed with bbq wings are work together to create a perfect snapshot of a real person, living her life as she pleases. You’ve got the writing magic, Nyx.
