Pop Prompts For Swifties

99 Writing Prompts

Beschreibung

Pop Prompts For Swifties uses the songs of Taylor Swift as a source of endless inspiration. Every writing prompt in this book is paired with one of Taylor's songs from the first "era" of her storytelling journey, from her debut album Taylor Swift(2006), to Fearless (2008), to Speak Now (2010), to Red (2012), and all the way through 1989 (2014). Go find the song on Apple Music or Spotify (or wherever you get your music), let the song wash over you, then do the accompanying prompt. The idea is to let Taylor's music be your muse, and see where your muse takes you! Whether you're jotting down extemporaneous thoughts in a journal or you're a published author looking for a way to shake up your writing routine, or anywhere in between, Pop Prompts For Swifties is for you. These writing prompts were designed to help you find your voice. Taylor's music will give you an extra dose of inspiration. Don't be fooled by the title: there are actually more than 99 writing prompts in these pages. Every prompt includes multiple questions, laying out plenty of emotional terrain for you to write about. If you aren't a die-hard Swiftie, you're among the lucky ones who get to discover Taylor's music while getting into a writing groove. But you don't even have to think of yourself as a writer to do these writing prompts. Anyone can use them as a tool for self-expression and reflection. As a bonus, each prompt includes blank journal pages. Pour your heart out. First thoughts are often your best thoughts, so use the blank journal pages in this book to get those down. Then if you want to write more, you can dig even deeper in another stand-alone journal. Inspiration is only a song away. Put on your favorite Taylor Swift album, pick a prompt, and start writing! DISCLAIMER: This book is meant for educational, scholarship, and research purposes. By taking a critical look at the themes in Taylor Swift's work, we aim to inspire writers to create their own unique works of personal writing and fiction. Writers using this book are encouraged to research their own hearts and psyches in order to become scholars of their inner selves. Song titles are referenced in the spirit of Fair Use and readers should seek out and purchase Taylor Swift's music on their own as a supplement to the original writing prompts in this book. Taylor Swift has no involvement with this book. The use of her name is merely descriptive and should not be interpreted as a sign of endorsement.
