Alright ladies, we’d love to know what one of your guilty pleasures is.

I know, I know, part of what makes it a guilty pleasure is that we don’t really want others to know about it. Maybe we feel embarrassed or that we shouldn’t be partaking in said activity.

But let’s be honest, we all have at least one guilty pleasure!

Let’s shine a light on what it is and maybe you’ll find that someone else has the same guilty pleasure too.

Ready to Share?

If you aren’t yet a writer of the Modern Women publication, join us by commenting on our guidelines here:

Formatting Requests

The only request we have is to format the title this way:

My Guilty Pleasure: ____________

Include a few words in the blank that summarizes your story. You can add any subtitle you wish.

Please also use the tag “Self”. That will organize all these stories in the Self section on Modern Women.

If you’re so inclined, we’d love for you to include a link to this writing prompt at the bottom of your story (best as an embedded link) so others can get inspired to write with us too.

Have fun sharing! We look forward to reading all about your guilty pleasure.

With love, Megan
