Writing Prompts #13

Published on January 3, 2013 by in Poetry Prompts, Short Story Prompts, Skill Builders, Writing, Writing Exercises, Writing Prompts

I am in the hospital and heavily medicated this week, so please excuse the formatting and any typos.

Writing Skill Builder (A Quick Exercise)
Write a description of a place where you would feel trapped.

Poetry Prompt
Write a poem that includes a bed.

Short Story / Fast Fiction Prompt
Write a story in which something mysteriously disappears.

Essay / Non-Fiction Prompt
Write about a time you felt confined.

How to Participate

The prompts are for your own practice and development. You don’t have to show anyone. If you would like to leave your response in the comments on this site, that would be fine. If you would like to post them in the comments on my Facebook Page, that is also good. If the response gets sufficiently large, I will consider creating a Facebook Group so that there is a contained area to interact, but for now the first two options are available.
