Happy Saturday everyone!  I can hardly believe it, but we’ve managed a whole year of writing prompts now and we have one person who has managed to do every single one of them.  Dorinda Duclos, you’re the queen of poetry and we all love you because of your tremendous talent and dedication.  Here’s to another great year!  🍾🥂 🎉

September Writing Prompts

~ ~M ~ 202 Comments

autumn-507544_1280

Here are the new writing prompts for September.  I hope all of you enjoy them!  Happy writing! ~M xo

And, if you’re new to the idea of writing with the help of prompts, here’s what I like to do with them…

To begin, settle into your favorite place in the house with a hot drink to warm your waking bones.  Once you’ve warmed up a bit; grab your journal, a trusty pen, and a timer.  Then, set your timer for ten minutes and begin writing about one of the prompts listed below.  Don’t worry about spelling, punctuation, neatness, or anything like that; just write!  Write about anything and everything that comes to your mind, and don’t stop until the ten minutes are up.

I often find myself writing short stories or poems during those ten minutes, but you can write about anything you like.  And don’t be alarmed if what you’ve written doesn’t quite make sense.  The whole idea behind doing this exercise is to get your mind ready and working so that you can begin your day.  Just think of it as exercise for your brain, and once you’ve done your ten minutes of writing, you’ll feel more prepared to tackle the rest of your day.

If you’re new and you aren’t sure how to pingback, please insert the following link anywhere into your post, and I’ll be sent a notification that you’ve posted something.  Thanks!
