From spiritual to spoofy

An idea for a new exercise is to try writing something sassy or even insolent for a medium in which you wouldn't usually be sassy, such as a church bulletin or a menu for an elegant restaurant. Taking a well-written ad and turning it into a rant or a parody piece is also a good way to turn your writing on its ear.
