The 4 x 4 writing structure tasks you with writing about 4 things each within 4 feet of you. Thank you to Tammy for the mentor text. As I sat in the reception area for an early morning weekend physiotherapy appointment, I thought it’d be the perfect time to give this writing prompt a whirl.
Fan humming overhead, an undulating drone
Social distancing stickers adhered to floor, reminding us of the apex of the pandemic
Windows bringing in diffused light to a dreary wet west coast day
Empty reception – a contrast to the hubbub of weekday activity

Have fun with it. It is fun to play with forms. I read a slice where someone adapted it to focus on sounds. I am wondering about adapting it to focus on a specific color.

Thank you for this structure. Love the alliteration, sensory details and strategic brevity of this slice. I’m right there with you in the waiting room.
