Look at the photograph below.

Write three short paragraphs about the photograph, one from woman’s point of view, one from the child’s, and the third from a third person not included in the picture. Have fun with this. Good Luck!

FODDER FOR FICTION ANNOUNCES NEW LINE-UP!

I’m turning over a new leaf! In 2010, instead of posting whenever I feel a whim, my readers should be prepared for a fantastic new line-up of programming at Fodder for Fiction! Look for new features, great guests, monthly writing contests, and chances to win prizes!

Mondays
Fodder For Fiction Feature: I’ll share some of the strange and quirky things I notice around me that contribute to my craft.

Tuesdays
Author Guest Spots: If you are a published author and would like to be a guest on Lisa Leibow’s Fodder for Fiction, please contact Lisa@LLLeibow.com

Wednesdays
Celebrate Author Birthdays with me!

Thursdays
Author Guest Spots: If you are a published author and would like to be a guest on Lisa Leibow’s Fodder for Fiction, please contact Lisa@LLLeibow.com

First Friday
Monthly Writing Exercise – I’m going to post a writing prompt or exercise on the first Friday of every month. Anyone who completes the assignment and sends it to me by midnight EST, the 3rd Friday of the month has a chance to win a prize. With the author’s permission, I’ll choose my favorite entries to post on the blog the following month.

Second Friday
What I’m Reading: I have set a goal to read at least 50 books in 2010. I hope you’ll enjoy following my progress and share what you’re reading, too.

Third Friday
Monthly Rant: Sometimes I think if people couldn’t complain, people would have nothing to talk about! I’ll share some of my venting with you. I hope it will make you laugh and make me feel better, too!

Fourth Friday
Update on Goals for the Year: Many of you may have read my New Year’s Resolutions for 2010. I hope you’ll help me stay on track by indulging me once a month in sharing what action I’ve taken toward achieving my goals. I hope you’ll comment, too, and share your progress. We can be a New Year’s Resolution support group.

Fifth Fridays
Contest – Every month that has five Fridays is extra special! Why, you ask? It’s extra special because during those months, every comment at Fodder For Fiction is a chance to win a goodie bag full of great prizes! Don’t worry. I won’t make you check the calendar. Watch for the Fifth Friday Contests during April, July, October, and December
