Let me know what results you get! If I get enough responses, I’ll do the exercise myself and post my results.

And here’s the link to my dear, cherished duotrope.

"What any creative person needs – all they need – is not praise or blame, but an active and grown-up engagement with the process of making things. That process is necessarily experimental, either in part or in the whole, and sometimes things work well, and sometimes less well. Sometimes things work for a big audience, sometimes only for a few. That’s how it is, and I wish, really wish, that we had a mature culture, interested in creativity, that could understand that.
-Jeanette Winterson
"Art is a private thing, the artist makes it for himself; a comprehensible work is the product of a journalist.... We need works that are strong, straight, precise, and forever beyond understanding."
-Tristan Tzara
Anxiety is the handmaiden of creativity.
-T.S. Eliot

I am little concerned with beauty or perfection. I don't care for the great centuries. All I care about is life, struggle, intensity.
-Emile Zola
