Get Your Juices Flowing By Funking Prompts With Mama Ki

Let’s call it what it is.

I have it. You have it. He has it. She has it.

Ladies and gentlemen: The February Funk.

So Here’s My Plan.

I’m launching a new series called: Funking Prompts With Mama Ki!

Frequency: TBD. Maybe weekly? Maybe as needed? We’ll see.

How-To.

1. Choose your prompt from the selection below. Pick one or as many as you like.
2. You may post your prompt response anywhere, any time, in any publication or on your own page. Likewise, if you’d like to publish your prompt response here on QuickTalk, you are more than welcome to. (Please request to be added in the submission guidelines if you aren’t a writer on the pub already.)
3. Just tag me with a shoutout, and tell us which prompt you chose and why. If you tag me, this will help me cross-promote on a weekly roundup and/or on social media.

and now…on with our #funkingprompts.

Funking Prompts v1.

Short Fiction:

• Continue the next part of Trapped!
• Your main character walks into their home, everything and everyone is gone
• Obsession

Poetry:

• Write a humorous character driven poem, any format.
• In celebration of Michael Burg, MD (AKA Medium Michael Burg)’s balls, write a poem about balls. Any kind of balls. Any kind of poem. Just a poem inspired by or about balls. If you choose this one, tag him in it as well!
• The winter blues

Creative Non-Fiction:

• Memorable foods or potent potables (“…for $200, Alex”)
• That time I fell up the stairs…
• Coming to America/Running from America
• Guilty pleasures

Anything Goes…but begin your piece with this sentence:

• “When I look in the mirror, I see someone I don’t recognize anymore.”
• “I never thought things could ever go so wrong.”

If any of these inspire you, please tag me so I can see what you came up with! Enjoy!
