Let's write about the outdoors

Let’s write about the outdoors is exactly what it is, writing about the outdoors. 

For some time now, in my daily job as a teacher and outdoor education instructor I have followed my passion and used my love of the world around me to write and share content all about the outdoors.

With that in mind and with our current situation being the way, it is most of us are housebound or being homeschooling. As a result of this, I thought it would be a cool idea to utilise some of your free time and invite you to contribute to my latest initiative. That being to capture some of your Thoughts and Stories from the Great Outdoors.

How you do this is entirely up to you. You can use your creative skills to present it in so many different ways by using paper and pencils, a suitable app, or the computer to capture your thoughts from the outdoors. 

Add to your writing a short piece of audio, a picture or two and you have the ingredients for some amazing content.

Take your content from your own experiences, on a holiday, an adventure or time just spent outside participating in exercise or play. If you are stuck for ideas then you can also use one of my writing prompts or as this rolls out suggest writing prompts for others to use. 

On completion of your work, all I would like you to do is to share it with others by using the hashtag #storiesfromtheoutdoors. Mention my website www.garethmate.com and if you would like me to share your contributions further then please email it to me at hello@garethmate.com

Above are some examples that will hopefully inspire you to get writing. You can find more ideas here.
