Prompts for September 2nd
Type one of these prompts into a blank document and then see where it leads you.
- I kissed _____ for the first time six days before he died.
- My ______ was the kind of person who_______. (Example: My mother was the kind of person who judged her friends by the cleanliness of their homes. OR: My neighbor was the kind of guy who mowed our lawn just because, which made me immediately distrust him.)
The Rules
- Respond to either prompt by pasting your response into an email to amandahartmiller@gmail.com no later than midnight on September 5th to be added to a monthly drawing to win $30 toward developmental editing or Fall offerings. You will be entered into the monthly drawing once for every prompt to which you respond, up to 5 times per month.
- Responses can be very rough and do not need to have a beginning, middle, or end. Try for at least 250 words. Your response should be fiction, memoir, or poetry. I reserve the right to delete and disqualify any responses that contain inappropriate content or do not appear to be in the spirit of creative writing. Response questions about services do not count toward the drawing.
- The drawing on the 6th of each month is random, not based on writing quality.
