[Stylist] writing prompts

[Jackie]

Annie,

I want to thank you for the truly motivating list of writing prompts. It got
a very inclusive response beginning with Vegas, who is always enthusiastic
about new ideas.

I do want to respond to everyone’s story, and to the good critiques as soon
as possible. 

I did write one myself about the teacher who changed my life, but I will not
send it until I have the time to comment on certain things that caused
memories to bubble up with all of the pieces from this group. Truly amazing.

Clarity is just questioning having eaten its fill.
