Friday's Beefcake...er..Visual Writing Prompt

Liane Gentry Skye for Writers Gone Wild

It's Friday.  More specifically, it's MY Friday to blog.  Ruh roh.  Guess who showed up to class without her homework?

For the briefest moment, I thought about relying on the topic universally acknowledged as apropos by erotic romance readers and writers when post topics evade them-beefcake.

But our readers deserve better. You all are savvy, and so above cheap ogling. Oh no, I'd never do such a thing, not to our followers. So, today, we're going to discuss a new technique to assist with writer's block.  Uh huh, that's right. Today, teach is going to introduce to class the concept of visual writing prompts!

Do you ever find yourself sitting at your keyboard, staring at the cursed cursor while the words you so need to jumpstart your scene elude, evade, and avoid?  Yeah, I know. I've been there, too. More often than not lately. Blows, doesn't it?

Lucky for you, and being the diligent author I am, I decided to face my block head on and go searching for some visual writing prompts. Turns out, I needed look no further than Facebook. There it was, posted on my page, the exact prompt I needed to jumpstart my lazy muse.
In a moment's time, I was transported to the jungle. In my imagination my heroine was being stalked by none other than...my new visual writing prompt. ;)  Eureka, my block was cured!

Seeing as how he worked out so very well for me, I felt compelled to share the source of my inspiration with our readers. So here he is, my new BFF, George.
And just for today, I'm going to loan him to you.  So, if George was hanging out in your imagination, what would he do?  Say?  And sorry, ladies, "Watch out for that tree," has been used. ;)
