3. Fonts: A writing prompt / 3. Fontit: Kirjoitusharjoitus

Image
(EN) Comic books use different kinds of bubbles and fonts to convey different types of speaking tones. This time, the writing prompt is: Observe a font; then, imagine what kind of a character would speak using that particular text type. Does the font describe f. ex. their personality or current mood? You can check the speech bubbles at the end of this post. Another option is that you go to f. ex. FontSquirrel and look at a wider collection of fonts. As usual, you are welcome to share your results at the comments section! (FI) Sarjakuvat käyttävät erilaisia puhekuplia ja fontteja kuvatakseen, miten eri henkilöhahmot puhuvat. Tällä kertaa kirjoitusharjoitus on seuraava: Tarkastele jotain fonttia; kuvittele sen jälkeen, minkälainen henkilöhahmo voisi puhua "fontin äänellä". Kuvaako fontti esim. hahmon persoonallisuutta tai hänen tunnetilaansa? Voit käyttää postin lopussa olevia puhekuplia. Toinen vaihtoehto on, että käyt esimerkiksi kurkkaamassa FontSquirrel -sivuston

7. Write a haiku or senryū poem / 7. Kirjoita haiku- tai senryū-runo

Image
(En) Haiku and senryū poems usually follow this syllable structure : 1. line has 5 syllables 2. line has 7 syllables 3. line has 5 syllables. You do not need to be worried about rhymes. A haiku poem typically describes the nature and surroundings without trying to be clever or witty. Haiku poems are excellent for practicing mindfulness and grounding to this precise moment. Senry ū poems , in turn, can be witty and describe the human nature — or other topics which aren't suitable for haiku poetry. The writing prompt : Write haiku and/or senryū poetry. If you want to check the syllables, there are automatic calculators for that: for English poetry, you can use e.g. this one . You can listen to calm music while writing. One example is below. (FI) Haiku ja senryū ovat runomuotoja, jotka noudattavat yleensä tätä tavurakennetta: 1. rivillä on 5 tavua 2. rivillä on 7 tavua 3. rivillä on 5 tavua Kummassakaan muodossa ei tarvitse huolehti

6. 20 "What if" questions: A writing prompt / 6. 20 "entä jos"-kysymystä: Kirjoitusharjoitus

Image
(EN) I received this book as a gift last Christmas: " Do You Ever Ask Yourself What If? — a list of hypothetical questions to spark your imagination & inspire creativity " ( Typo, can be found here ). The book has 120 questions which you, as the owner of the book, can answer. Most of the questions are intentionally silly and light-hearted, but it is up to you how seriously you answer to them. You can also imagine being someone else and answer the questions as that person. I'm not going to spoil the questions of the book here, though (that would be unfair to the creator of the book). The book has approximately 60 pages which you can use to form your own questions and answers, one question and answer per page. Here are 20 questions that you can use (with that book or without it): What if... ... You saw your FB avatar in a random dating ad? How would you feel and what would you do? ... You had to give up 10 items? Which items would they be, and why? ... You
