Skip Into the New Year

December 30, 2019 By Nancy Casey

There’s a whole new year waiting to happen out there. Of the infinitely many things that could happen, what would you just as soon skip?

Write sentences that begin, “I will skip…”

Imagine your ideal self in a perfect year and announce the many things you will decline. When will you close your eyes, cover your ears, or plug your nose? What will you turn away from? What foods will you leave on the plate?

What will you forget?

Consider the activity of skipping itself. It’s not glum. Picture yourself that way, joyously skipping one thing after another all though they year. Write down what you will skip.

When the page is full, give it a title and write the date on it.  Add color and illustration to it if you would like.

News and Events

Nancy blogs weekly for the Latah Recovery Community Center, sharing writing ideas that support self-awareness and self-esteem.


Looking for an art project that is secretly full of math? Or a math project that results in interesting art? Equilateral Triangle is an Inquiry Pack full of project ideas that will keep you thinking for a long time.


Writing classes and workshops

In-person Write-For-You workshops at the Latah Recovery Center have been suspended for a bit, but you can still do the writing prompts on your own. For more information, about the Write for You program, or if you are in recovery and interested in writing coaching, contact Nancy.
