writing prompts

I don't know how many people are still reading this that participate in SPACE, but I found these writing exercises to be interesting.

two of my favorites:

>>Write a work gazing into a mirror without using the pronoun I. (can prisoners have mirrors?)

>>If you have an answering machine, record all messages received for one month, then turn them into a best-selling novella.
(answering machine messages as writing prompt, i really like)

If anyone knows anything about prison work in New Orleans contact me... of course living here I should be the first to start researching but unfortunately work has been overwhelming...
