“Don’t stop and think about it, just write.” —from the introduction Writing is many things. It can be a way to express our deepest feelings and greatest yearnings, or illuminate the mysteries of human existence. It can also, of course, be a lot of fun. Sometimes the best way to get started writing is to just get started and see where it takes you. This book will show you how! With 303 Writing Prompts, author Bonnie Neubauer (The Write-Brain Workbook), provides hundreds of easy exercises that will get your creative juices flowing. Neubauer’s prompts include everything from the first line of a story that you must finish, to simple sparks of inspiration. Her thought-provoking and sometimes whimsical prompts include: Write a magical love story in which the image of Lincoln on a five-dollar bill winks at a woman. Write opening paragraphs for four different stories that each start with the same question: “Why did you do that?” Write a dialogue-only conversation between two people where each line of the dialogue is no more than five words. Fill an entire page with it. Finish this story: “They had wanted a boy.” Whether you’re a full-time, part-time, or aspiring writer, 303 Writing Prompts will get you writing again.

Some students are just not comfortable with sharing intimate details about their thoughts, feelings, and lives— at least, not with others in a class or group. Unjournaling, Second Edition is brimming with playful writing prompts that are entirely impersonal, easing the way for hesitant writers while still offering creative challenges for those who are more experienced. This edition updates existing prompts while introducing 50 brand new ones. It includes sample responses— a helpful tool for anyone who gets stuck with a topic and wants to see how it can be done! Two examples of the 250 writing prompts include: Somebody’s sitting behind you on the bus. You hear only one side of an odd cell phone conversation, but it is intriguing and alarms you. What do you hear? Igor could hardly wait to get his new special license plates for his car. He paid extra for these plates: BIM- BB1. Explain the meaning behind this very special license plate. Suited for seventh grade to adulthood, Unjournaling is a flexible, varied, interesting, and, most of all, fun approach to creative writing.
