August Writing Camp
This summer’s Writing Camp runs August 4-31.
How does Writing Camp Work?
A writing prompt* is emailed to you each weekday (choose English or Spanish) for you to write anytime day or night. The writing prompt is the first part of your first sentence. Write it at the top of your page and keep going for at least 10-minutes.
Each weekend, an editing deep dive comes via email. Choose 1 piece of writing during Camp that you’d like to develop more and apply the exercise. Each editing exercise can be combined week-by-week to the same piece of writing or to different ones — your choice!
You are invited to share your writing and read other Campers in a WhatsApp group and to bring your writing to online Zoom circles for feedback.
Camp prompts and editing exercises are available in English or Spanish.
*More about the Writing Prompts
Prompts are created by Abre Tu Boca founder and writer Amanda Aileen Fisher and help spark your writing. Each one is the beginning of a sentence that gives you the starting point. Each prompt knocks on the door of your subconscious and then something inside gets up to answer. Start writing to see where it leads! Prompts can take you into styles of writing you have never before explored, uncovering stories and characters that sometimes lie deep within. At times, they awaken tales you have lived; other times, they lead you to write fictional ones. Each prompt sparks something different!
During past Camps, some people have managed to connect all of their prompts, one camper even writing a book! You just never know what might happen!
