Some writers find writing prompts to be helpful, either as a starting point to kick off their next story, or a tool to break through a case of writers block. I’ve never attempted to provide a writing prompt before, but here goes.
First of all, go to this website Click Here. Then do one or more of the following:
- Take the first photo that shows up, give them a name and write a few paragraphs describing them; not their appearance but their behaviour and attitudes.
- Refresh the page a few times until a photo shows up that speaks to you, then use number one for that person.
- Refresh the page several times and choose two photos, give them names, decide on their relationship, (friends, family, lovers, opponents, enemies) and write a dramatic scene in which the two interact with each other.
- Choose a photo and write a scene where that person is dying. Include what they’re thinking and/or saying to others who are with them.
- Choose a photo and write a scene where that person is in a car accident. How do they react?
If you like the idea of finding writing prompts on this blog leave a comment below and I may include more in the future.
