Weekly Prompts June 18–24, 2022

Your weekly dose of writing prompts

Hello again, my lovelies. Welcome to another exciting week of creative writing prompts. I’m actually ahead of the game this week. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing, but I guess we’ll see.

Tomorrow is Father’s Day here in the states and I’d like to wish all the dads, granddads, uncles, brothers, moms, sisters, aunts, and anyone else who’s helped raise a child or even just a fur baby, a blessed day. Fur babies are our babies too. My dad was one of the most important people in my life and I miss him every day.

I apologize to everyone who has written a piece based on any of our prompts that I haven’t gotten to yet. Summertime is always a busy time for us. We spend time at the lake, go out riding the motorcycles, and just hang out as a family. Gotta make those memories.

So anyway, let’s get on with it. Let’s get those creative juices flowing and make some memories of our own. I give you the weekly writing prompts for the week of June 18–24, 2022. Have fun and let your senses fly.

There you have it, my darlings. Your weekly dose of writing prompts. I always get such a kick out of coming up with these ideas. Not all of them are great ideas, but I’ve seen some great works come out of them.

Remember, if you write something from one of these or other weekly prompts, be sure to tag me so I can come take a look. I may not get to it right away, but I will get to it. There is no time limit on any of our prompts, so take your time and let the inspiration take control.

If you publish outside of PW, please tag both me and Ravyne Hawke so she can stop by and take a look too. And while you’re here, be sure to check out our Promptiliciousness section to find prompts from Marcus aka Gregory Maidman, Rose Malana, and Ravyne Hawke. There’s always a little something to inspire your muse.

Thank you all for stopping by again this week. I’m so proud of each and every one of you.

Until next week, Happy Writing!!!
