<li>Rapid fire images (start writing/break through a block by just putting ten images down in ten minutes; we address the universal too much).<ol>
<li>Dust on electronics, untouched by clean cloth, disturbed only by unread mail; a mute accusation.</li>
<li>Cloud-dulled sunlight found its way through the tiniest of cracks in the styrofoam sheet standing in for real blinds.</li>
<li>Something&mdash;dog fur? My own hair?&mdash;touches my face too lightly.</li>
<li>The way the world dims when the neutral-density filter is turned.</li>
<li>Tweezers, tips never quite touching, cozy up with nail-clippers.</li>

<li>Write a cumulative sentence together: &ldquo;Arriving late, &hellip; to sit down at my desk &hellip;&rdquo; &mdash; <em>Arriving late, after forgetting my coffee&mdash;now cold a fridge unplugged&mdash;in the rush of guilt from forgotten alarms, my clothes still damp having quickly grabbed them from the still-turning drying, I was desperate to escape the stifling conversation, prattling and monotone, of my dull-eyed coworkers, which was focused on weekend plans, how many inches of rain were expected, and the circuitous detail of their underdeveloped dreams about toe fungus.</em> &mdash; have fun and be ridiculous to hunt for opportunities, then go back and revise, overwrite and pare down.</li>
<li>Notes on simile: <ul>
<li>simile has emotional and physical register</li>
<li>more than a physical comparison.<ul>
<li>Bad: &ldquo;his legs were thick like tree-trunks&rdquo;</li>
<li>Good: imbue with something much larger. &ldquo;His legs were thick like he had dedicated himself to becoming a statue, some solid object people admired and pointed toward&rdquo;</li>
