I know, I know. NaNoWriMo is next week. Why am I giving you prompts? One: it's in my schedule. I created a schedule of posts to write to help me not lose my marbles making up ideas every week. Two: it's totally Fantasy novel month! We gotta get into the spirit of it! Three: I … Continue reading Fantasy Writing Prompts
Photo by Karolina Grabowska on Pexels.com We've talked about romance books. We've talked about romance tropes. Now it's time to put all those talks into action with a few writing prompts about/inspired by romance. It's the month of love (and really hot weather--I'm mildly dying) so why don't we take advantage of that before it's … Continue reading Romance Month Writing Prompts

If you couldn't tell already, I'm an American. I have very American centric posts. I assume the summer starts in June and will probably say inches instead of centimeters. And this week, I bring another set of prompts that are...well...American in nature.
