Four Weddings and a Funeral

If you haven't read Bird by Bird, what are you waiting for?

Before we get to today’s prompts, here’s some inspiration from Anne Lamott:

“My writer friends, and they are legion, do not go around beaming with quiet feelings of contentment. Most of them go around with haunted, abused, surprised looks on their faces, like lab dogs on whom very personal deodorant sprays have been tested. But I also tell [my students] that sometimes when my writer friends are working, they feel better and more alive than they do at any other time. And sometimes when they are writing well, they feel that they are living up to something. It is as if the right words, the true words, are already inside them, and they just want to help them get out. Writing this way is a little like milking a cow: the milk is so rich and delicious, and the cow is so glad you did it.”

Which kind of writer are you right now? Haunted and abused, or beaming like a happy, relieved cow?

Okay, let’s write. Today’s prompts were inspired by Four Weddings and a Funeral
