I've mentioned before that Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year. Here in the northern Midwest, we end up getting snow and very chilly temperatures but I still enjoy the spooky atmosphere. One of my favorite movies is Hocus Pocus (I named my first cat after the cat in the movie) and … Continue reading Halloween Prompts
At the end of this week, a cold snap is to set in, pushing us even further into the autumnal season. Where I live, autumn lasts only a few weeks. It wouldn't be too surprising to even see a few snowflakes on Friday with the temperatures dropping. So I want to celebrate the few weeks … Continue reading Autumn Prompts
This fall is a strange back to school season. Honestly, it doesn't even feel like back to school. Even though I haven't been in school for at least 5 years, I would still feel the buzz and excitement of school around me. Every time I went to the store, there would be shelves upon shelves … Continue reading Back to School Prompts

Second preface: I have been out of the dating game for like 2 years so I don't understand it anymore. Like legit … Continue reading Writing Prompt: Character “Dating Profiles”

But I think this week it's important to remember those we love in our lives platonically. We have friends, families, and … Continue reading Platonic Love Prompts
I'm writing you from my childhood bedroom. Upstairs my mother is readying what she can of the house as she prepares for us to unwrap gifts on Wednesday. Some of you will be enjoying the holidays with family. Some might not enjoy the holidays at all. But for those who spend time trying to write … Continue reading Holiday Prompts
Next weekend is basically the last real summer holiday weekend of the year (at least in the United States): Labor Day Weekend. It's usually the last hurrah for kids before school. The last chance the weather will actually work with you for a BBQ and pool time. The last chance to express your feelings to … Continue reading Vacation Prompts
It's the last week of Camp NaNoWriMo and I know there's a few of you out there freaking out because you haven't reached your goal yet. Have no fear, I'm here to help. With a Summer Camp Word Crawl.
