The Balancing Stones Sculpture Writing Project
~ FEBRUARY - MARCH 2017 ~
Alright, everyone has had a little extra time to get all of their Stones in order, and get everything written down in your trusty Notebooks. We left off with the following...
1) We got our Notebooks out;
2) We wrote down our Stone 4 word;
3) We wrote down the one area of choice that we picked in relation to our Stone 4 word;
4) We wrote down the one sentence that relates to our area of choice; and
5) We then put steps 2 through 4 together, and everyone should now have what we have each come up with as our personal writing conclusion, and it should be written in our Notebook.
We are now on our 5th Step. Your fifth step should end up looking something like my personal example as it relates to what your choices are:
My Novel will be in the form of a "Self Help Journal" focusing on Journal Therapy or Reflective/Meditative Writing.
There are five (5) more Stones that we have to work with on our Balancing Stones Sculpture.
Stone 5 is going to be all about "you" and your writing.
Take what you have written as your conclusion, and pull out the key word that jumps out at you for your Stone 5 word.
What jumped out for me is the word, "Journal".
Take your word for Stone 5, and add it to your print-out of the Balancing Stones Sculpture. Your print-out will look a little different from mine, but you should have five (5) Stones with words on it, including your 2nd Stone with the year your Stone 1 word was first used in the English language.
Please Note: Your Stone 5 word should be placed on the Stone sitting on the pedestal like so . . .
(Here is my print-out) . . .

Here is what we are doing next: FOCUS on your Stone 5.
1) Whatever your Stone 5 word is, write in your Notebook about why that word is meaningful to you.
2) Remember that the word jumped out at you from the conclusion that you reached on your journey participating in this Writing Project thus far.
3) Focus on yourself and your interest in Writing.
4) Now WRITE in your Notebook using your Stone 5 as an instruction.
See you back here with your Notebook in hand tomorrow as we continue on with our Writing Project, and our remaining Stones...
