Week 1 Ink Spark: Four Lines Only

The Scriptorium is for ink and mythcraft.

We start with a small cut, not an epic.

You will write eight lines total, four and four.

---

Part 1: Four lines of what you are sick of being

Write four short lines that begin with “I am tired of” or “I am done with.”

Examples:

> I am tired of folding to the first hint of pressure.

I am tired of talking myself out of every hard thing.

Keep it honest and concrete. No grand philosophy.

---

Part 2: Four lines of what you are becoming

Write four short lines that begin with “I am becoming” or “I choose to be.”

Examples:

> I am becoming someone who finishes what he starts.

I choose to be the kind of person my fear hesitates to face.

You are not making affirmations for a vision board. You are naming a direction.

---

Part 3: Post it

Comment under this post with your eight lines.

If a line feels too raw to share exactly, you may blur the detail, but keep the spirit.

You are not being graded on literary quality here. You are staking a small verbal claim in front of witnesses.

We will come back to these later and see which ones you have begun to live.
