A proposito di questo titolo
Friday, Jan 2: The 106th birthday of Isaac Asimov. Explore the "Three Laws of Robotics" and the professor who wrote 500 books by rotating between different typewriters.
Saturday, Jan 3: The 134th birthday of J.R.R. Tolkien. How a blank exam paper led to Middle-earth and why Tolkien believed language must come before the story.
Sunday, Jan 4: The 217th birthday of Louis Braille. The story of a 15-year-old boy who adapted military "night writing" to create the universal tactile script for the blind.
Poem: "The Lake Isle of Innisfree" by William Butler Yeats (Public Domain).
Writing Prompts:
The Three Laws: Draft a set of "Three Laws" for a different type of modern technology (e.g., The Three Laws of Social Media).
The Found Sentence: Like Tolkien, take a blank piece of paper and write the first strange sentence that comes to mind. Spend ten minutes writing the "who, what, and where" of that sentence.
Night Writing: Describe a familiar room in your house using only tactile details—textures, temperatures, and shapes—as if you were navigating it in total darkness.
