Writing Prompts

Stumped!?! Try one of these ideas!


Fiction/Non-Fiction short story

  • Find a news story, and write a story from the perspective of a spectator, or bystander.


Poem/Prose

  • Describe a favorite (or dreaded) experience using as many senses as possible.
  • Describe someone starting with their hands. What do they look like, what are they doing?


Poem

  • Start every line with the word "You"  (try other pronouns or a mix, they, we, y'all, I, etc.)


Ideas

  • Create a character (looks, interests, motivations, so on) then create a simple 3 act arc for them.


Discovery writing

  • Write a one sentence summary of a story you want to write. Copy and paste then add details until it's your story. (I've never gotten this to work, but I suspect it would be pretty cool if it did)
