Some More Writing Prompts

About a month ago, we tried our hands at a few prompts. This week, let’s try out a few more.

1. Write a holiday poem—Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza. Hell, it doesn’t even have to be a winter holiday!
2. Write a memoir for your favorite cartoon character.
3. You receive a large box from UPS with no return address. Something is rattling around inside it. What happens when you open it?
4. Come up with a descriptive word about yourself for every full calendar year you’ve been alive. Try to avoid generic terms such as “nice” or “fun.”
5. Describe a fishing experience from the point of view of the fish.
6. Try writing a sonnet. Not sure what a sonnet is? Check it out here!
7. Create a newspaper for a fictional land that you’ve invented.
8. Write about your most recent dream.
9. Prepare the eulogy you would deliver for yourself at your own funeral (if that were possible, of course).

Happy writing!
