Writers "Pump Up" with Creative Calisthenics

Dec. 19, 2008 - PRLog -- How do you "pump up" your creative muscles? CreativeCalisthenics.com (http://www.creativecalisthenics.com ) offers several suggestions in their recently released book "Creative Calisthenics: A Workout for the Writer's Imagination."

The book written by communication professor Terri Main features more than 175 story starters, writing prompts and creativity exercises.

"An athlete builds up physical muscles through training and exercise," notes Main. "Creative 'muscles' are built up in the same way. This book gives you a workout for the imagination."
According to Main, "Creative Calisthenics" differs from the typical writing book in its "hands-on" approach.

"Most writing books tell you how to write something," says Main. "Creative Calisthenics is different in that we don't tell you how to write. We give you prompts, and we let you write."

According to CreativeCalisthenics.com, the book is available in both print and electronic formats.

Main explains, "If you like to have a physical book that you can put on your shelf, you can order one from the website. However, you can also order either a PDF or PDA compatible Ereader format book which you can download immediately instead of having to wait two weeks for delivery of the book."

Creative Calisthenics carries a cover price of $12.57 for the print version, $5.00 for the PDF and $3.50 for the Ereader version.

CreativeCalisthenics.com includes free articles about creativity and writing, weekly writing tips and a discussion board where visitors can share their own creative writing tips and favorite writing prompts.

Creative Calisthenics also has a presence on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/creativewokout.
