A writing prompt is a word, picture, phrase, quote or set of directions to help you kick start your writing for the day. I find them especially helpful on mornings when I feel like I have nothing to write about. They are intended to get you going. They may be privately held journal entries or may serve as a launching point for a new story, play, scene, novel, etc. And sometimes a writing prompt can even help you break through an obstacle you've hit in an existing piece.
So, are you ready for your first prompt?
Drum roll please!
Write a poem about a color that especially appeals to you this season.
Any kind of poem, any length, doesn't have to rhyme, just put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard for a few minutes and let her rip!
