Day 54

(I apologize for the long break. The prompts are back now!)

"The beautiful thing about losing your mind is that you don't need to have a direction."

Challenge: Write this with an unusual metaphor.

Tip: Focus on voice. Imagine how the narrator would sound as they tell the story. Think about the inflection, the way they would speak, the words they would use. Are they cynical? Optimistic? Unsure? Reliable? Picture the narrator speaking, imagine the way they say the words, and write as a person would speak. Most importantly: don't confuse your voice with the narrator's voice.

Ready. Set. Continue.

Day 48

Lay in the grass, close your eyes, and feel everything around you. Describe.

Challenge: Tell an entire story - detailed description and all - in under 400 words.

Tip: As you notice your surroundings, write it out in your head. The best parts will stick and the rest will be filled in as you write.

Ready. Set. Feel.
