Know any writing exercises?

I'm off for three weeks, and need to take some stuff to keep to keep me entertained that won't weigh down my suitcase too much.

I'v already grabbed a cheap copy of Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, as I enjoyed it on a previous holiday. I found the structure to be brilliant. Read some theory. Do a warm up exercise, and something then something bigger that seemed to take me between 45 minutes and an hour each time.

I've always said I have no desire to write fiction, but I quite like the idea of something like the DotRSotB structure for writing as zero kilogramme travel entertainment.

Any suggestions?

Alas, no. You could try finding a copy of Natalie Goldberg, Writing Down the Bones instead. It's the sort of book libraries should have and it's very common in bookshops. There's even a tiny pocket-sized edition.
