This Week’s Writing Prompt
I suggest setting a timer for 6 or 8 minutes, putting the writing prompt at the top of your page, and free writing whatever comes to mind. Remember, the important part is keeping your pen moving. Right now we just want to write something new and see what happens.
This week’s writing prompts are borrowed from Elissa Bassist’s piece, Writing Prompts for the Dumped, published at McSweeney’s Internet Tendency: Two unlikely characters meet, date, and eventually part ways. Write their story without using the words “part ways,” “meet,” or “Zoloft.” OR/AND Write flash fiction that begins with the phrase “every silver lining has a cloud” and ends in castration.
