Tell us about a time when you felt out of place. Does all the time count? I consider myself a socially awkward person. I’m more comfortable alone than in a group of people, and it’s hard for me to break out of my comfort zone. Which makes it hard to connect with people. When IContinue reading “Odd One Out”

Trouble with Feelings
How are you feeling right now? This writing prompt came up for me a couple weeks ago. I’ve tried several times to answer it and each time my answer has been different.

Favorite Word
What’s your favorite word? There’s a lot of words out there in a lot of different languages, so picking one word that tops them all can be a challenging task.

Was today typical?
Date: 7/31/2023 I have not laughed at a writing prompt for a good while. Go figure, today–of all days–this would be the question. The answer: Absolutely not. I had such high hopes for the day.

I’ve been working with a friend of mine to create different kingdoms and cultures based off the 16 different Pokemon types.

Not onlyContinue reading “Build a Kingdom”

Unicorns and Dragons
Writing Prompt: What would life be like if unicorns and dragons existed? If unicorns and dragons existed, I fear they would’ve been hunted to extinction by now. Let’s start with unicorns.

You Gotta Believe Me
Write about a time when no one believed you. The first thing that comes to mind when I read this prompt is high school, senior year. Us seniors were a part of a class wide English game involving the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell. It’s a popular dystopian novel. Most of us had toContinue reading “You Gotta Believe Me”

Question for you, and I’m sure everyone’s answer will be a little different: What is a personality trait you admire in other people? There’s a lot of personality traits out there: patient, geeky, listener, football fan, kind, thoughtful, funny, and so on and so forth. When you think about your closest friends and family.
