A Collection of Inspiration


Some people collect seashells. Others Matchbox cars or porcelain dolls. Me? I collect writing prompts.
Ever since that "The Girl and The Box" story back in high school (see archives), I've been addicted. The idea that a single question or suggestion could open the mind up to a world of possibilities is so tantalizing, so wondrous to me.... It's like a fathomless sea of creativity awaits just beyond the bend of the imagination.
I suspect that over the years I've collected thousands of writing prompts. I could probably write a book filled with page after page of them.
Who knows, maybe I'll start sharing them here. Anyone interested in a "Writing Prompt of the Week"? Let me know.
