Well folks, welcome to the wonderful world of masterlists! I thought that today I would help us all get the creative juices flowing and share a ton of writing prompts with you. I've come up with these myself, though I'm sure you could find some of them other places as well. Below are a mixture of sentence prompts, word prompts, and question prompts, for all different types of writing! Pick one you love, and write it! I DARE YOU!
1. Your character comes across a magic wand on their walk home from school/work/etc. They feel inexplicably drawn to it and pick it up. What does it do? What does it look like? How does your character use it?
2. Describe in detail the item sitting to your left, without saying its name.
3. Pick your favorite flower and incorporate it into a horror story.
4. Use pillows + pamphlets in a story.
5. Write about a dragon, but don't place it in a fantasy setting. It could be a western, a sci-fi, a romance, you name it. Have fun!
6. Take your favorite pop culture characters and have them meet. There's a bomb in the room and they have to diffuse it.
7. Use shadows + photographs in a story.
8. Gays...in SPACE!
9. Your main character in your current project runs into themselves from the future.
10. What's your comfort food? Tell us why and describe the way it makes you feel.
11. "Her midsection had managed to miss the blade, but her t-shirt had not. She'd never quite liked crop tops."
12. A ghost wants to come back and help their slacker best friend graduate college.
13. While picking up their kid from school, a parent spots a younger version of themselves leaving the school building. How do they respond?
14. Use cash + college in a story.
15. Search your name on google images. Write a story about whatever comes up first.
16. Ask your friend for two random words. Write a story incorporating them.
17. Describe your favorite place. Set a story there.
18. What happened to the second half of the pair of shoes?
19. What if your pet could talk?
20. Come up with the wildest clickbait title you can. Then, write something 2x as wild as the original clickbait title.
