You may be interested in reading or joining David Abrams “Sunday Sentence” project if you get excited when you notice an intriguingly well written sentence. Do you stop, inhale and read the sentence again?
Maybe even grab a pen and underline something?
David Abrams “Sunday Sentence” project posts the best sentence he read in the last week, ”out of context and without commentary.” This concept made me more conscious when devouring or scanning paragraphs. I applaud the writer when there is a unique placement of precisely chosen words. Sometimes I even want to write their phrases in a book but, since that takes effort, I rarely do.
By joining this “Sunday Project”, whether literally or just in my mind, I hope to savour and celebrate my fellow writers’ contributions more and, who knows, perhaps improve my own scribblings. Wanna join me?
