The Pretty Poems Criteria (PART II)

So, as of now the week will stand as written (But I reserve the right to change my mind):

WEEK 1: Personals (this week I want to focus on our personal strong points and how we can tell our stories and relate it to other girls our age who may possibly be going through hardships as well. This project is about relating, inspiring, and giving hope to the youths of today. I hope this theme caries throughout your writing in general).

WEEK 2: Eating Disorders (Including bulimia, anorexia, body dismorfia etc. Feel free to pull for actual stories, personal encounters and whatever inspires you.)

                                      

WEEK 3: Abuse (emotional, mental and or physical. Feel free to pull from actual stories, personal encounters and whatever inspires you.)

WEEK 4: Bullying/Suicide ( how one can lead to the other, or they can be completely separate. I wanted to put these two together due to them usually being paired with each other. Feel free to pull from actual stories, personal encounters, and whatever inspires you.)

WEEK 5: Bullying/Suicide ( I think it is appropriate to do two weeks on this topic, due to it being so vast.)

WEEK 6: Sexuality (The uncomfortable feel of your own skin, dealing with being homosexual, fear of not being excepted. This theme I know is very important to many of you, and to me as well. So please feel free to dwell here for as long as you need. Pull from actual stories, personal encounters, and what ever inspires you.)

WEEK 7: THE IMPORTANCE OF STRENGTH (This is the big one. the fact that all that life brings from the past weeks, we can either choose to buckle under the pressure, or rise like a phoenix above it. Feel free to play in both extremes. Pull from actual stories, personal encounters, and what ever inspires you.)

ALSO! I forgot to mention, if you are inspired by images, feel free to share them, post them etc.

Writing will start Monday sharp.

I cannot wait to see what we can do together!

Pretty People are made out of ugly experiences.

We are pretty people.

Someday.

Everyday.

Starting today.
