Seven words each: a card for the table

Cut along the dashed line and fold: the steps on the front, the thing to remember on the back.

A Grown-Up's Writing Desk · two writers, one of them a teenager

Seven words each

  1. Look at the picture together for one minute.
  2. Each writes a story in exactly seven words.
  3. Read them aloud, one after the other.
  4. Say one word in the other's story you would not have chosen.

You'll need: one picture, two slips of paper and two pencils.

Keep this in mind

Seven words: choosing is the writing.
