Have you seen the forecast lately? The first snow of the season is expected Wednesday. Why not take the opportunity to write about it (or, photograph the snow and send us your best artistic work, or your artwork inspired by snow).

Writing prompt: How do you feel about snow? How can you describe snow so that it’s a metaphor for something larger, deeper, or more complex? What about the muffled silence of the world during a snowstorm?

Try describing snow–or something happening within or near the snow–in a literal way that also works as a metaphor. Send us your best! Check out the “submissions” link for details 🙂
