I think I'm gonna talk my english teacher into letting us do this for the first ten minutes of class. Sounds fun and very, very interesting. I hope it helps my (unpublished) novel get better and better. Never thought of doing that till now.

What comes out from the exercise is a peice that has taken on a life of its own. You cannot tell where the next word is going to take the sentance. The most amazing part about the work you end up with is the dramatic change of your regular writing voice. I started with a lady sitting at a train stop and from the lack of "e's" and having to improvise, I got something that sounded old and southern, just by chance. You can play around with ommiting different letters than an "e" on your next time. Try without an "a" next time. another writing practice that I REALLY love and is very challenging is to write for 10 – 15 minutes without using the letter “e” You would be surprised how many times you have to find alternative wording.

I have started doing this with "She's been told." and it's a great way to test the limits of your imagination! I prefer fifteen minutes to ten, it's just about enough time to get 500-600 words out and wrap up a scene.
