Day 38

Rewrite the past.

Challenge: Look into the butterfly effect and write a story based around that idea.

Tip: Think about every aspect and detail of a story. If a character decides to run around the block in the middle of the night, why? If a character's upset or euphoric, what habits might that character have that show that specific emotion? In the case of this prompt, think of every possible aspect of the change - large scale, small scale, mid scale. What'd change? What'd be the same?

Ready. Set. Rewind.

Day 36

What's the cost of freedom?

Challenge: Write a historically accurate piece about a revolution of some sort. It can be current or from a long while ago.

Tip: Look into real life stories. Whether it's a personal story, one from a friend, one from a memoir, or an account that you find from a source. Look around you and see the real life stories. There's inspiration in reality.

Ready. Set. Explore.

Day 29

Look around at the news. Monumental cases are taking place and people are taking a stand for what they believe in. Write a historical piece about a time in the past when people did just that.

Challenge: Find an event that's not too well known to write about.

Tip: Research. You not only need to know the history of that event, you need to know the culture of the place and time period; what it was like to live through that event; and how people talked as dialects are forever changing. Have fun learning and being a part of a piece of the past.

Ready. Set. Make history.
