Well-made Things

January 4, 2021 By Nancy Casey

Write in praise of some of the well-made things in your life.

Consider functional objects like tools and machines. The things that are so well-made you barely notice you are using them.

Spaces, public and private, can be well made. Parts of a city or town. Workspaces. Closets.

Think about pieces of music, art or entertainment. What is it about the way they have been made that had an effect on you?

Give your work a title. Illustrate it if you like. Write your initials and the date on it.

More thoughts on this topic.

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.
