Write about the weirdest job you ever had. Fiona was used to strange requests in her line of work. Odd jobs were her specialty. Deliver a package here, send a message there, plant evidence on that person, it didn’t matter. Most of the mercs in the guild preferred the traditional gigs—the protection jobs, the assassination … Continue reading Prompt 206-Odd Job

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
It Is Sunday My Dudes
Hello denizens of the internet! It is the first Sunday of the new year and that means a new update post for Closet Full of Notebooks.

The storm railed against the tiny fortress, but … Continue reading Prompt 176-Complete The Thought 4
Week 34 – This time for real
I found it! My prompt book was, in fact, at the top of the box I had packed it in, just not the box I thought I had packed it in. Did a little bit more unpacking and arranging this weekend. I probably won't be finished until like February at this rate, but I HAVE … Continue reading Week 34 – This time for real
Pinterest Prompt – Revenge
Max’s eyes shot open and he sat straight up off the hard ground, gasping and coughing. He clutched at the bloody hole in his shirt, feeling unsuccessfully for the edge of the stab wound. It had already stitched itself back together. He’d been out longer than normal. He attempted to get back on his feet, … Continue reading Pinterest Prompt – Revenge
Pin Prompt – Raven Lady
They say there was peace once. They say the world wasn’t so bleak. They say the people used to have the keys to their destinies. The riddles of an addled old woman guided them through their adulthood. They say she had foreseen this too. High up in the mountains, tucked away in a hidden glade, … Continue reading Pin Prompt – Raven Lady
Pinterest Prompt – Roses
The grandfather clock in the dining room chimed the half hour. The large wooden table carried almost no dust, despite not having seen use in nearly a month. The china in the cabinet was equally clean. The chairs shone with fresh polish, set equal distances around the table. They seemed small, so few. At the … Continue reading Pinterest Prompt – Roses
