It’s time to get this writing community back to Writing Prompt Wednesdays! It’s been a while, and if you feel anything like I do, which I hope you don’t, you may need a little inspiration to get that imagination back up and running.

So one of the story ideas that tried to make itself known during the move was a one-shot fan fiction from Dragon Age.

I know! Don’t even get me started.

It’s a simple idea from a mission in the third game that left a lot of fans in a tizzy at the time, and for some reason, came to me when I didn’t have any time for anything creative. I made a few notes and left it at that.

Then a few days ago, wanting to write anything, I opened up that story idea and wrote about 500 words. Not a huge number by any means, but…it felt good…to be creative.

The idea is of a character left alone in an inhospitable environment and how they might survive.

And then I saw this image and it struck me in its symbolism to this short story I’m working on. So here it is, my impulse choice for this week’s writing prompt.

Are you up for the challenge?

Happy Writing!

Writing Prompt #146

This week’s writing prompt is completely different from the one I shared last week. You might even wonder as to my thought process in that decision. I just go with what speaks to me in the moment.

The thing is, I’m working on finishing the first draft of a screenplay that shares similarities with the image above. I have the final polish on Fate(s) and then it’s going out into the world, so I think I may have wanted to save this image until I could focus my attention on that story again.

Are you feeling inspired? Need a break from your routine with a little free write or flash fiction?

I look forward to reading your creations! Happy Writing!
