Have you started working on your Secret Santa Short Story contest entry? If you haven't, and are still trying to come up with ideas for it, maybe one of today's prompts will jump start something for you. Also, another reminder, if you want to participate in the Winter Anthology, the deadline to have your story to the proof team is December 3rd. Now, let's see what prompts we have for today, shall we?   Prompt 460 - Creative Tag – First Line “Who invited you?”   Prompt 461 – Creative Tag – Th

Writing Prompts Second Chance #270 & #271

Hi Everyone   Turns out that I'm helping out in a pinch with this weeks Prompt Me! blog entry. Our prompt guru Wayne, aka Comicfan, and Renee are shall we say 'indisposed' for now.   Since I'm not an expert here, I thought I would copy a Prompt Me! that was originally posted on October 17, 2013 by Comicfan. I thought why not give this another go to share your Spooktacular writing skills with all!   Prompt 270 – Creative Tag – First Line “Because, I’m leaving you.”   Prompt 271 – Creati

Wow! Is it me or are the weeks flying by? Welcome to another Friday, and you know what that means don't you? Prompt time. As usual, I don't want to hold you up, but need everyone to remember that prompt responses under 1,000 words must be posted as part of a collection. Now, on to the prompts.   Prompt 456 – Creative   Tag – First Line   “How did I forget his birthday again?”   Prompt 457 – Creative   Tag – Spiders   To say you loath spiders would be a gross understatement.

Welcome back to another Friday Prompt Me! Yes, amazing how quickly the week seems to pass. Already those of us in the Northern Hemisphere are seeing the cooler temperatures moving in, the leaves changing colors, and announcement of snow. Seems that autumn is flying by. As it does hopefully people are taking time to enjoy things and perhaps even taking a bit of time to write again. Just the weekly reminder - Prompt responses under 1,000 words must be posted as part of a collection.   Considerin

Well here we are again at the start of another weekend. Yes, it is Friday and that means it is time to tempt you all with some new prompts. Now that October is underway, some people might find it nice to curl up with some apple cider, a slice of pumpkin pie, and write! As usual it is time to see if we can encourage new authors, revitalize lagging authors, and see if we can keep our usual crew pumping out new works.

So here we are at the first Friday of October. Is it me or is the year just flying by? Anyway, I hope everyone has been having a good week. Since is it once again Friday, I'm here to present to you some new prompts. As always, if your work is under 1,000 words you have to place into a collection. And now to give you something new to entice you to write.   Prompt 450 – Creative Tag – List of Words Use the following in a story – an apple, a farm, hay, a horse, a diamond ring   Prompt 451 – Cre

Hello again. If I am the one here you know it is Friday again! Friday, Friday, Friday ... drats. Someday I will get that song out of my head. Oh well.   Since it is that day of the week I get to challenge you all to a new set of prompts. One of them might finally convince you to sit down and write, or decide it is time for a break from your usual story and try something new and different. Either way, I hope one of these two prompts grabs your attention and makes you want to write. Just remembe

It's been two weeks since you were given something new, but then last week you were all given the Fall Anthology - Blurred Edges. I do hope you read and commented on them. Missed them?

Today we have a slightly new method to the madness, me! I'm a little bit later than Renee on posting these, but I hope you'll enjoy this week's prompts as well as the feature prompt selection. Sometimes an author hits a road block that they just can't seem to make their way through. The weekly prompts are a great starting point to jump start some new ideas.

Writing Prompts Second Chance Prompts!

Every once in a while, I like to look over the past prompts and see what, according to the prompt forum, haven't been used yet. That's what I decided to do today. We're going to give some of those unused prompts a second chance to be noticed. Since the beginning of 2015, there have been 8 prompts that have gone unused. Hopefully one of them will inspire a prompt response. If you decided to use one, make sure to put it in the appropriate forum thread!   Prompt 383 - Creative Tag: The New Year I
