Today is the beginning of a very winter snap for me. The ground is covered in ice, and I'm working from home to avoid the cold. I'm not a fan of the cold. It was only a few days ago the east coast of the US also got covered in snow. Winter is definitely making … Continue reading Winter Prompts
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
Preface: I know I totally talked about platonic love last week and said that romantic love wasn't everything. That still reigns true, but sometimes you get characters that fall in love. It happens. 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”
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

What's a Word Crawl? Penning from a similar real life activity (known as a pub crawl), … Continue reading Summer Camp Word Crawl
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. For anyone who might not be familiar with it (though I doubt anyone … Continue reading The Most American Prompts (4th of July Edition)
This is pretty self indulgent. And also a little lazy. June is my birthday month. I will be 27 years old...inching closer and closer to that big 3-0. I've done a lot in just the past six months. A lot for me at least. I've started a blog, celebrated a relationship, moved, changed jobs, changed … Continue reading Birthday Prompts
Happy First Day of Summer! Well, there's a few days between this post and the First Day of Summer, but I'm excited. I'm a June baby and June+Summer=Fun. This is when I do the most travelling, the most adventuring, the most outdoors-ing. The last one isn't a word, but I don't care. It's summer in … Continue reading Summer Prompts
For all my Christian or friends who end up celebrating the spring holiday, Happy Easter. My family isn't very religious. At least the younger parts of my family aren't--but we still celebrate Easter. We just like ham and mashed potatoes honestly. And little chocolate bunnies. So cute. Colorful eggs in a nest provided by Annie … Continue reading Easter Prompts
