I hate writing. That's how I was feeling for a while this afternoon. Even as I was feeling it, I knew it wasn't true, but still there's a lingering frustration in me that I need to vent about. Because writing is my outlet, and even though I hate it today, overall I know I love … Continue reading Writing Is Dumb

Not Dead
Wow so I really dropped that list of prompts and then dipped for two weeks huh. Sorry about that. I was not expecting to drop off the face of the closet-earth but sometimes life gets chaotic and you just gotta go with the flow. My anxiety has been all over the place with this pandemic … Continue reading Not Dead
Charmin Dreams
Well hello there, and welcome back to the Closet for another week of prompts! I hope you are all staying safe and hydrated and washing your hands and getting some quality time with yourself as everything shuts down around us. To be honest, I'm only familiar with the cancellations and closings in my state and … Continue reading Charmin Dreams
Prompt 384 – Childish Things
What funny and memorable things did you do as a child? This prompt probably couldn't come at a better time. The world is dark and scary right now so let's spend some time reflecting on the past, to the time of youth, where hope was eternal and the future was bright. As with most of … Continue reading Prompt 384 – Childish Things
Prompt 383 – Cutting Out Negativity
Do you think it is wise to remove all negative people from your life, even if some of them are family? If so, why? Absolutely. Look, I’m luckier than a lot of people. My family has always been kind, loving, and supportive. We’ve also had our dysfunction. We’ve bickered, snarled, gotten physical. We’re human. Emotions … Continue reading Prompt 383 – Cutting Out Negativity
Prompt 382 – Unwanted Job
What is one job you’d never do, no matter how much you were paid? Alaric grinned as he lobbed the little asteroid across the small space. “Worst pickup line you’ve ever used or that was ever used on you.” They were playing a sort of 20 questions, getting-to-know-you game he had picked up in Echelon … Continue reading Prompt 382 – Unwanted Job
Change of Scenery
Happy Sunday folks! We're back for another week of writing! I'm hoping all the weirdness stays in last week and doesn't follow into this week with the time change and the full moon and Friday the 13th. I really will need a two week vacation if I have to go through another chaotic week like … Continue reading Change of Scenery
Prompts 380-381
Hi fellow closet dwellers! Apologies for the radio silence this week, I've had a rough one. I was all ready and raring to go with prompt 380 for Wednesday night, had some ideas for a cute little story, and then I popped a tire on my commute home. Of course it was on a busy … Continue reading Prompts 380-381
Prompt 379 – Icebreaker
How do you typically break the ice in a group setting or gathering? Ice breakers are absolutely awful. I hate them. Don’t ask me to do them. Don’t put me in a group of strangers and ask me to share a fun fact or talk about the weather. If I’m in a group setting, it’s … Continue reading Prompt 379 – Icebreaker
Creative Diversity
Howdy friends! How was your weekend? Did you get out for some fun? Stay in and write? Bit o' both? I didn't do as much writing as I wanted to. I keep making excuses and finding distractions to keep me from it. Not sure why it's been so bad of late, but I hope I … Continue reading Creative Diversity
