Cloudy, Rainy Days

Today is one of those cloudy, rainy days. You know the type. Everything is a bit dreary. You feel like sleeping longer than you should. Coffee serves as a way to daydream instead of a pick-me-up.

These days tend to be more about process, for me at least. I do not accomplish more than usual on days like this–quantitatively, that is. I ease myself into the process and try not to set goals that will cause me to let myself down.

Days like this can be amazingly productive in one sense. They encourage a wandering mind. Where do you go next? What happens when you leave here? Where did you come from? How is this shaping your story? Is your story somehow shaping you?

Today’s Writing Prompt

Write about a cloudy, rainy day. What do you, or your characters, do to pass the time? Is this a languid time for you, or an empowering time? What processes happen during this time that otherwise get no attention?
