Friday, June 15, 2001. The concept of "filling the well" comes from Julia Cameron's book, " The Artist's Way. To see how these activities enhance creativity. Once we are no longer depleting our well but actually filling it we will find there is an additional reward, for the very act of being creative will "fill our well" even further. 1999 Anne Johnson www.womenfolk.com.

Student Cafeteria: January 2003
http://cafeteria.blogspot.com/2003_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 30, 2003. Today we began our visual journals in class with this lively exercise. Take a newspaper or magazine page and randomly cut thirty words. Cut out big words or little words. Once you have the words use them like magnetic poetry and write the last thing you say to the world before dying. You can make any adjustments by cutting off letters and arranging them in any way you like. Some examples from today are. Fruit I missed the World Cup. Tell Mum I will miss her. Home of Soul Food.

Friday, May 24, 2002. When Chris had finished we looked at the facade and I posed the question of what the inside was like. Shane obliged and came out and spontaneously drew an anatomical representation of the inside. "Is that it? Are we just blood, muscles, organs, cells? Then the bell rang! With much clatter they were gone! They help me express something endless, help me to express infinity" she replied. But I don't know how to express the idea of the well" I confessed. Our eyes met again! Today we had...

Thursday, March 20, 2003. Students at the primary schools that I visit to promote writing activities have been very excited to participate in the new Colouring Story. Competition. They love the beautiful Chinese Dragon. And have been told to start their story with the line "Once upon a time, long, long ago, in a faraway land, there was." When they have finished colouring in the dragon that is hovering over the Chinese village, they will use it to make a front cover for their Chinese Fairy Story.

Monday, February 18, 2002. Flick through a glossy magazine and randomly collect a selection of shoes. Collect stilettos, sneakers, sandals, Doc Martens, boots - exotic shoes, expensive shoes, shoes to fill a wardrobe - enough shoes to stock a shoe shop. Close your eyes and pick a pair and begin writing. Let the shoes start your story, determine the place, the character and the direction. Posted by Heather Blakey at Monday, February 18, 2002.

Monday, December 16, 2002. I saw a blackish greyish colour with different colours speckling all over the place. The colour is like a deep void of nothing with colours exploding around" wrote one Grade 6 student. Later we did a guided imagery and students discovered how much sensory material appeared on their pages, seemingly drawn from the very deep void that Gary had witnessed. Experiment now.
