There's something extraordinary about starting with a blank page and a prompt-or several-and launching into a story, just seeing where it takes you. Even in a group of writers, with every one receiving the same prompt, writing for the same amount of time, every writer in that group will craft scenes that are drastically different. No two stories are even close to the same.


The fifty writing prompts in this journal are here to guide you in taking this magical creative leap. You can use them to lead you in writing about your own life in memoir, or you can apply them to your main character-or a minor one-in fiction. You can choose one prompt, and if you feel inspired, go with it. Or you can choose two, three, or four, group them, and see what comes out.


No matter where these prompts take your stories, they'll keep you coming back to the page, to the space of immense pos­sibility and magical story.


50 writing prompts, 300 pages, grid paper, page numbers
