Frequently Asked Questions

How should I approach a writing prompt?

Start by reading the prompt carefully and letting your imagination explore possibilities. Don't feel constrained by the exact wording - use it as a springboard for your creativity. Write freely for a set time without editing, then refine your work later.

What if I want to change the prompt slightly?

Feel free to modify or adapt the prompt to better suit your story idea. Prompts are meant to inspire, not restrict. The best stories often come from taking a prompt in an unexpected direction.

How long should I write for each prompt?

This depends on your goals. For practice, try 10-15 minutes of focused writing. For developing longer pieces, you might spend hours or days expanding the initial idea. There's no wrong approach - do what works for your writing process.

Can I combine multiple prompts?

Absolutely! Combining prompts can lead to unique and interesting stories. Try mixing different elements from multiple prompts to create something entirely new and unexpected.
