An in depth look at Step 3 of the Potato Time™ writing method.

Step 3: Write, or otherwise make art.

What does it mean, when we say ‘make art’?

Is art truly made? Or is it within us all along?

What is art?

The answers to all of these questions can be found by employing the Potato Time™ philosophies.

Whatever you have accomplished at the end of your 1 hour, that is art.

  1. 500 words of prose.
  2. A 40 line poem.
  3. A to-do list for the coming day.
  4. Some journaling, or free writing.
  5. Matched socks from that pile of laundry you haven’t touched in four days.
  6. A hot potato.

All of these things are art in their own way.

None of them existed before Potato Time™.

All of them came from your own labours.

All of them are consumable.

Especially the potato.

Next time in this series of lectures, we will consider Step 4: Ding.
