Prompt 198-Advice

What is the best piece of advice you have ever been given? Not so much advice as inspiration, I once read something to the effect of “We’re all just making it up as we go. No one has it all figured out. Do what makes you happy.” I apply a lot of similar mantras to … Continue reading Prompt 198-Advice →

Prompt 197-A Beautiful Sound

Describe the most beautiful sound you have ever heard. I have so many ideas for this prompt and they’ve all been warring in my head all night to the point that I can’t focus enough on any one to write a short scene. I became fixated on the idea of a character hearing the voice … Continue reading Prompt 197-A Beautiful Sound →

Prompt 196-Misfit

In what way do you not fit in with the family you grew up with? “That girl isn’t right.” “She has far too much spirit.” “Poor Jin. Such a troublesome daughter he has.” “Mika must be so ashamed.

Recall a memorable haircut or hairstyle you have had, given, or witnessed. Leo scanned the coast warily with his spyglass as the rowboat made its approach to the island.

You Can’t Always Get What You Want

Happy Sunday, friends! Have an early-ish post today because I have plans for the afternoon. Some overdue human interaction with someone who is not my husband! (Have I mentioned I do not get out much? Other people? Hiss boo hiss.) My friend from work is coming over to hang out and watch anime and eat … Continue reading You Can’t Always Get What You Want →

Prompt 194-Chapters Of Life

Break up your life (up to this point) into three chapters, and give each chapter a title. In an effort to bolster the word count of this post, I’m going to use this as an exercise to chapter some of my character’s lives in addition to my own. I turn 30 this year, so breaking … Continue reading Prompt 194-Chapters Of Life →

Prompt 193-Little Things

It has been said that it is the little things that make life worth living. Describe one (or several) of those little things.

Prompt 192-Truth

What do you know is true? Jack was alive. Todd scowled at the med bay ceiling. The mixture of human and Mosari machines surrounding his sickbed made a discordant symphony as they worked to heal his many wounds. The doctors had been optimistic that he wouldn’t lose his arm, but it would be weeks yet … Continue reading Prompt 192-Truth →

Prompt 191-Motherly Quality

Write about the most important quality any mother should have. Lara panted on her knees in the soft grass of the courtyard. Her arms trembled and she struggled to get back to her feet.

Prompt 190-Airline Improvement

In what one way should airlines improve airplane travel? I’ve been on 6 planes in my life, all of them with Southwest Airlines, so I can’t really speak to the air travel experience with any authority. There’s certainly been no shortage of controversy in the news when it comes to major American airlines (United and … Continue reading Prompt 190-Airline Improvement →
