10 Kinds of Rain
–Inspired by Ireland
Much of writing is noticing what you’re noticing, making the strange familiar, and the familiar strange. Sometimes we can trick ourselves into seeing familiar things in new ways. This prompt is handy when trying to find an idea for a new project or when you get stuck in an existing one.
Make a list of 10 different kinds of rain. (Example: thunderstorm)
Make a list of 10 objects associated with rain–not obvious! (No boots, rain coats, umbrellas.) Doesn’t have to be connected to first list.
Make a list of 10 scents of rain–not obvious! (Example: razor, knife, a cold remark)
Go through your Kinds of Rain list and use each one as a VERB in a sentence. (Example: a thunderstorm. Exclamation points thunderstormed through her letter.)
Go through the object list and use each one as a VERB in a sentence. (Example: umbrella. The father Maple Tree umbrellas its sapling.)
Put a character in the rain and in one long paragraph of description characterize their mood by how they experience/describe the rain. (Try not to use sadness unless it’s in a very surprising and specific way.) Use the scents, objects you listed, and the information gathered from turning them into verbs. How can you signal the character’s interior to the reader by describing the rain in an unexpected way?
Extra credit: do the same for snow, money, love, friendship, etc…
