It’s just after 6:00 this Sunday morning and the creative juices are not quite flowing yet. I think today I’ll try a structure that a few other slicers have used.

 
Currently I am…
Sitting at my desk in my office
Awakening to the dawn of a new day
Listening to the quiet sounds of a house at rest
Watching Cyrus wait patiently until I am ready to go downstairs
                                       Wondering what adventures the day will bring
                                       Wishing the outcome of last night’s Villanova game were different
                                       Anticipating a visit to a favorite breakfast spot with Allan
                                       Thinking about how hard it can be sometimes to write
                                       Celebrating the community of writers I have come to know during this challenge
                                       Hoping that spring will soon arrive
                                       Looking forward to visiting a craft fair this afternoon

I look over at Cyrus as I try to think of some more verbs to use. He is staring at me with hungry eyes. I think I’ll write from his point of view as we make our way to the kitchen.

Currently I am…
Rushing down the stairs and into the kitchen
Following Rosie to that special place that holds my food (I think it’s called a closet)
Watching her fill my bowl with delicious morsels of chicken and rice
Gobbling up breakfast as fast as possible
Settling down, my belly full


I can see lots of possibilities for this type of writing!
