Hello everyone. Today's writing prompt can also be considered a story starter. I thought it would be interesting to turn a story starter into a writing prompt.
All we know is that a male is sleeping. Your assignment, or writing prompt, is to list as many scenarios that come to mind with the details given. Who is the male sleeping? Is it a man, a boy, an animal, a martian, a fictitious character? Is it someone you know? Who is the "I" that tiptoes into the room. Is it you or someone you make up? Where is the room? What time of day is it? Why is the being sleeping? Use your imagination and have fun with it.
If you want, choose the most exciting scenario and turn it into a story.

Hello everyone. It was such a hot day today, it would have been a wonderful time at the beach. However, I am not anywhere near a beach. So, I guess I will just have to keep it in my imagination. So, I decided to create today's story starter about a trip to the beach.
I started to set the scene for the story. Now, if you choose to take the challenge and the assignment, it is your turn. Where will you take the story from here? I would be happy to know. Please, feel free to comment below or to contact me. Enjoy!

Writing Prompt 15 for 2014

Hello everyone. I thought I would try something different today. I have never seen this as a writing prompt before. Anyway, it is a two part prompt.
For the first part, you think of ten words that start with the same letter as the first letter in your name. Write the list of words down. This is the pre-writing part of the writing prompt.
My name starts with the letter "j" so I need to think of ten words that start with the letter "j." Let's see. I think I would write down: jump, joyful, jab, jet, jazz, jumprope, jog, just, jellyfish, and jack-o-lantern. Then, the idea would be for me to try to write a story using as many of these words as possible.
Good luck! And, most of all, have fun with it!
