Wednesday Writing Prompts-Strange Objects
Many, many years ago, I ordered a book from Writer’s Digest Book Club which was a book of just photos. What would a writer want with that sort of book? Good question. It was a writing prompt collection. Not words, not story starters, but photos on which to base your story. This month, I thought…
Wednesday Writing Prompts-Noise of the City
The last video prompt and it’s all about the city. Does your character travel to a big city for the first time? Why are they going there? Do they get lost? Do they find something unexpected? Overhear something? Maybe they rent one of the bikes. Have fun and happy writing. [wpvideo g8vRfRqG]
Wednesday Writing Prompts-These Shoes Are Made For Walking
Enjoying the video prompts? I have another one for you. Where is this man walking to? Is he about to confront someone? Heading to ask someone to marry him? Is he lost maybe? So much you can do with this one, so have fun and happy writing. [wpvideo G5glBSh3]
Wednesday Prompts-The Road to Where?
Another video as a writing prompt. This time it’s the snowy road to somewhere. Is your character the driver, the passenger? Maybe the person who lives at the end of this road and someone’s about to stop by? Is it an innocent visit or maybe something sinister is about to take place? Remember to press…
Wednesday Writing Prompts-Sci Fi Maybe?
It’s a new month and I thought we’d try something a little different. Each Wednesday our prompt will be in the form of a short video, and yes, it will have a soundtrack too. This one reminds me of Minority Report…yes, did you know that the movie originated from a short story! Maybe you’ll pen…
Wednesday Writing Prompts-Lost Treasure
This week, the prompt is all about lost treasure. Your character moves into a new home, decides to plant something in the garden, and while digging, unearth some coins. What are they? Are they valuable? What’s the date on them? What do they proceed to do with them and what’s the outcome? If you’re journalling,…
Wednesday Writing Prompts-Strange Dreams
This one could be for a horror story or maybe something less creepy. Your character dreams about this image every night for a week. Is it a good omen, a bad one maybe? Has the character seen this in their waking life? Lots you can do with this one. If you’re journaling, think about…
Wednesday Writing Prompts-Working
The first prompt of 2020 and let’s go with an opening line which is- “It’s all in a day’s work.” Who says that line? Is it really about work? If it is, what sort of work are they referring to? I know lots of you have enjoyed using these prompts for journaling so how…
Wednesday Writing Prompts-Are You Ready for a Challenge?
I saw this in an e-mail I received last week and thought it was such a great idea that I had to share it with you. What better way to start our 2020 Wednesday Writing Prompts than with a challenge. Fellow author, Ray Daley has set himself the challenge of writing a story…
