Costumery

Put on a costume before you start to write. Decide to be someone or something you are not. (Don’t fight me on this.) You can be a princess. A prince. A poodle. A puddle. Mark Zuckerberg, a hamburger, Parisian, a soccer hooligan, your mom.

Once you get everything set–shoulders squared, hem straight, feet tied on–think about something from your costume’s point of view.

§

If you and your costume can’t agree, write using at least five of these words:

foot

yard

back

fortune

game

apple

cemetery 

own

underwear

drinking

improvise

sang
