Creative Writing

Prompts

1. Set a timer for 10 minutes and free write. Just writing down anything and everything you’re thinking. 

--> Writing stream-of-consciousness can help get your creativity flow.

2. Write a poem about what you wish you knew when you were younger.

3. Write a poem in which you use wind as a metaphor.

4. Write a poem about a magic mirror.

5. Write down a word in the center of a page. Draw a circle around it. Make a “word web” of words related in any way. Maybe it rhymes. Maybe it’s related by subject. Maybe it’s a synonym. Maybe it’s related to a personal memory. Make connections as quickly as you can. Then let these words inspire a poem! Put them together in interesting ways.
