Here are over 130 ten-minute writing exercises for you to dip into and enjoy. Approach these challenges with the minimal of mental preparation. Don't agonise over writing the "perfect" response; simply put pen to paper and start writing! Try carrying a notebook and paper with you, for the next time you find yourself with 10 minutes to fill waiting for the bus/train/doctor/etc.

John Mayer
I'm having a John Mayer day today. No wonder the ladies (at least initially) like him! He writes with insight and vulnerability. As a fan once said, "Mayer speaks my mind". Let's look at one of his recent numbers, "Whisky Whisky Whisky". It's the chorus that gets me. "Whisky, whisky whisky, water, water, water, sleep." Says it all really, doesn't it? TASK Have a listen to the song and use the mood and feel as a jumping off point for your own piece, wherever that might take you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6_MnxwLie8
