Every Sunday I post new creative writing prompts for the week to help you get a little creative writing done.
Choose one prompt each day this week and use it as the basis of a new short story or poem.
You might also combine several of the creative writing prompts to create a single story.
Keep all your stories in a spiral notebook.
Later, you can go back to all your stories to see which ones you might want to revise and develop for publication.
1. People told Courtney, “You can’t have it all!”
But she knew they were wrong.
2. Jeffrey stared in disbelief at the paper he had pulled from the envelope.
He read it again.
Help me, Jeffrey. Someone is trying kill me.”
3. Edward looked at his new bride and smiled.
“This house has been in my family for over 200 years,” he said to her. “Welcome to your new home.”
4. “I’m going to tell you a secret,” she said. “And you must never repeat it…to anyone.”
5. My name is Isabelle Rutherford. I’m 103 years old, and this is my story.
6. Cassandra loved living by the lake until…
7. The grandfather clock in the corner ticked loudly, reminding Sabine that time was running out.
8. It sounded like thunder…or a car backfiring.
But fear gripped Ashley as she realized the sound was neither of those things.
9. It was absolutely the worst job Duncan had ever had.
But he couldn’t quit.
Not just yet.
10. Marian Jones had never lived in any city before.
But this wasn’t just any city.
Happy writing!
