<p>Need more ideas? Not sure what to write around
<strong>Note</strong>? We&#8217;re here to help:</p>
<ul>
<li>Today&#8217;s the day you start a diary. Take note of how
you&#8217;re feeling. As Natalie Goldberg says in her book,
<em>Writing Down the Bones</em>, &#8220;We are important and our lives
are important, magnificent really, and their details are worthy to be
recorded. This is how writers must think, this is how we must sit down
with pen in hand. Remember: <em>magnificent, really</em>.</li>
<li>Are you self-isolating? Write a note to each person you&#8217;re
sharing physical space with. Hide that note in a place you&#8217;ll
know they&#8217;ll find it.</li>
<li>Poets, put your superpower of observation to work. Look out your
window and take note of the first thing you see. It could be the tree
across the street. A small bird landing on the ground in search of
food. It could be a street sign, a brick building, or maybe an open
field. Now, write a poem from the perspective of this inanimate
object. How does it feel? What does it think?</li>
<li>Artists: put yourself in place where you slept as a child. Take
note of everything you can remember. What did it look like? Smell
like? Feel like? Render this space from memory in the medium of your
choice. </li>
<li>Composers: put together an eight-bar melody using only dotted
quarter notes and eighth notes.</li>
</ul>
