Random Writing Prompts²
It's been quite some time since I offered you all a little push to practice your skills. Today, I'm back with more random writing prompts. Use them to take a break from your current project, inspire yourself for your next, or simply test out your abilities. Remember, the point is to write (even if that's only a few sentences) and have fun while doing it!
Try these and see if they get the juices flowing. Meanwhile, I'll be here rooting for you!!
✍️🏽 Write about...
A single father who gets a second chance at mending his relationship with his kids when they fall below the sand during a beach trip.
A scapegoat, only literally. In this case, a goat (magical or otherwise) that's a pro at escaping unfavorable situations.
Three's a crowd. Write a story about a date gone haywire because an unexpected third party showed up and decided to stick around.
A powerful being who suddenly loses everything to someone that was once powerless in front of him.
Fulfilling the worst favor in history because of an ancient contract.
Forgiveness. Maybe modeled after your own life or something you wish you had witnessed. Write something to yourself, even.
A person who hears whispers from a lake.
A tree that speaks and whose favorite pass-time is to taunt humans unexpectantly.
A character who can only speak backwards.
A blind person explaining how they see the world.
A crew member of a pirate ship that is always tasked with fixing the boat after attacks on their adventures.
The personification of rain drops.
A boy who drops through a sinkhole that leads into the sky.
Two ghosts trying to find new bodies, and new lives, in the living world.
How your favorite fantasy series or movie character would have to deal with their situation if people had realistic reactions to them the entire time.
Your least favorite villain becoming the hero of their own story.
