...Try to mimic Hemingway's style in "Big Two-Hearted River." Use simple sentences and repetition. Pay close attention to minute sensory details. Take it slow. Not much needs to happen, but it needs to feel "profound."
...Write a 250-word sentence that tells a story. Try to make it work as one sentence, as opposed to several sentences separated by commas or dashes or semi-colons.
...Write a story consisting entirely of sentence fragments.
Whatever you write, try to incorporate the concepts of Series and Balance in your sentence structures.
