WRITING PROMPTS | PROMPTLY WRITTEN
Prompt Yourself: Weekly Prompts Jan 1st-7th
Prompts to tempt your muses
Welcome to the first week of prompts for the relaunch of PW! I will be using the same format that I used in the previous Prompt Yourself prompts. Each week, you will find prompts for Monday-Sunday. However, you do not have to use them in the order they are written. Browse them all and use only the ones that resonate with you. Submit your work any time during the week (or long after!).
Remember, if you previously wrote for PW, you will need to go to the Submission Guideline and ask to be a writer again.
How This Works
- You may use these prompt to write poetry, fiction, an essay, creative non-fiction, or an article.
- You may submit here at PW, to any publication that accepts prompts from other publications, or self-publish on your own page.
- Please include a link to the prompt at the bottom of your story and add a tag back to me so that I do not miss reading your story (@ravynehawke)
- Have fun!
Moody Monday

— casual, intimate evening with family and/or friends — someone is super cranky — enclosed patio with a fire burning in a clay fireplace

Thursday’s Thoughts
“Every sunset is an opportunity to reset. Every sunrise begins with new eyes.” — Richie Norton

There you have it, me lovelies! A week’s worth of prompts to tempt your muses. I look forward to reading your submissions.
