You know I love prompts. And what better way to be masochistic than to add sleep deprivation to it?
Linda Crosfield points out one at her blog.
Entering it’s 12th year is the 3:15 Experiment. The deal? Pre-register, set your alarm for 3:15 a.m., and write a poem when it rings. No editing — post it. Repeat daily thru August. Or, if you’re a night owl, stop what you’re doing and compose at that hour, I suppose.
I can’t participate in this one. Dynamite literally can’t wake me until my body wakes itself. (Incidentally, I am not misusing literally; there are whistle blast warning and bedrock going boom. I feel like I’m living in the Flintstones.)

Interesting idea.
I have a friend recovering at home…cabin fever
in the living room. I’m thinking…maybe if he
scatters words from a hat on the floor that will
draw more.
