Presentation transcript:

Writing Territories To find your writing territories, ask yourself what is important to you. What are you very, very interested in? What topics do you think might be writing territories for you? Is there someone in your family that you want to write about over and over again because there’s so much to think about related to that person? Is there an activity or interest you are passionate about? Is there an issue that you care deeply about that could become a territory? Spend some time thinking about what your writing territories are. List them in you writer’s notebook as you think of them. Whenever you’re trying to decide what you want to write about, remember that many writers have favorite topics – writing territories – that they write about many time during their lives. You can use your list of writing territories to remind yourself of a topic you want to write about.
