This one is for yesterday.
We got to do some creative writing during our staff meeting today. We had to 'show' what was happening, rather than 'telling' what was happening. For example, instead of just saying "It was cold", we had to find a way of showing in our writing that it was cold. I had forgotten, in my current life of report writing and planning, just how satisfying it can be to try to put a group of words together for no other reason than that they communicate your ideas in a pleasing manner.
I had a ball. I'll have to try to remember this and do more of it when I have the time.
