[Write about your shopping wish list and how you like to spend money.] What is this “shopping wish list” you speak of? How I like to spend money? These are questions that don’t apply to me! Were these prompts designed to be responded to by adults with jobs and money to spend?! This is ridiculous! Disrespectful! Blasphemous! Insidious! Discriminatory! …
29–Good Vibes
[What makes you smile? What makes you happy?] Well, not this prompt. Nothing good came to mind and I’m bored. Yet, I’ll write something for the prompt. Weeeell, let’s see… The simplest answer to both questions is “Whatever entertains me.”, and I could also delve deeper to explain what entertains me for what reasons…but that idea …
28–Shadow
[Imagine you are someone’s shadow for a day.] Long shadows made by the setting sun cast over the dark alley which Brita found himself in. The atmosphere of the place always sent shivers down his back, but there was no way in Hell that Brita would let that show. Weakness was what they used to decide who to mug. …
27–Closed Doors
[What’s behind the door? Why is it closed?] Annie’s excitement built up until she thought she would explode as she pushed open the door to her new home. It was modeled to look like it was plucked straight out of the Victorian era with its fancy floor layout which made it look like a miniature castle. If the outside …
26–Fear
[What scares you a little? What do you feel when scared? How do you react?] Failing myself, never achieving anything worthwhile, and losing when I think I have every possibility of winning. Those’re things I fear, but not what I fear most. I really only fear two things “the most”: succumbing to apathy and failing others. Let me …
25–Dread
[Write about doing something you don’t want to do.] There are sooooooooooooo many things I dread doing, but most of them involve confrontation with emotional and/or stupid people having outbursts. Now, when I say “emotional”, I mean to the extent that their emotions override logic. Here are some examples: PersonA cried about failing an important test, I asked …
24–Numbers
[Write a poem or journal entry about numbers that have special meaning to you.] One. Having only a single body, mind, life. To use as I see fit. My responsibility to take care. For granted, I shouldn’t take. Yet I do. Various ways, harming myself. Aware in times of rest, eternal fatigue. Straining muscles, through typing and gaming. School studies, …
23–Sugar
[Write something so sweet, it makes your teeth hurt.] Smoke billowing from dozens of fires, clouds above threatening rain, horns in the distance signaling reinforcements. But they were too late. Faebyen stood atop a pile of rubble, his sword dripping blood. He cast sorrowful eyes upon the corpse at his feet. “If it wasn’t for you, Dyf…” Faebyen clenched his …
22–Smoke, Fog, and Haze
[Write about not being able to see ahead of you.] Yawning, Faebyen checked once more that fate was moving accordingly. Her job was incredibly boring but she was the best around, so her pay was nothing to scoff at. Slouching in her chair, Faebyen lifted a finger and touched a string of karma. Nothing strange and everything was perfect. The …
21–Foreclosure
[Write a poem or short story about someone who has lost or is about to lose their home.] Huh, I guess my response to prompt #11 (Dragon) could fit here. But, of course, I’ll write something completely new for this prompt rather than use something already existing! …… Oh no! I almost don’t notice in time as a large bird …
