Just Keep Writing: September 11, 2023 - Monday Musings

 Welcome to the scenic route! It's been a blessing to have a few cooler mornings, especially since our electricity went out a couple times during the night. The cooler temps mean we don't have to run the ACs so much. How's the weather in your area? Is it nudging you to get creative? If you need a little jumpstart, keep reading to check out today's three word prompt.


Just Keep Writing: Monday Musings

If this is your first time participating in this kind of writing exercise, you're in for a treat. If you've done this with me before, just keep scrolling for the prompt.

Rules:

  1. You can use any/all of the words and/or the photo in the prompt below to create a unique written work. Fiction or nonfiction, poetry or prose, even lyrics are acceptable.  
  2. Please keep the material you write clean (i.e. nothing R-rated or worse) if you wish to share the link to your work here, as well as if you link back to my site. I strive to keep my site free of such things. My readers know and expect this. I respect your right to write whatever you feel you need to write. And you're free to use my prompts. But if your material is graphic, I'd rather not view it, and most of my readers will not wish to. 
  3. Have fun! This type of exercise is perfect for growing in the writing craft, or for helping through a rough patch in your current WIP. If you're looking to push your author limits and you normally write in nonfiction prose, try a whimsical collection of lyrics. If you normally write poems about real life events, try your hand at a fanfic. Give yourself some room to explore.

Don't forget to leave a link to your creation (unless you're writing graphic material) so my readers and I can check out your work. I'd appreciate a link back to this post to help me reach more readers, but it's not required. 


I must confess. I was kinda bummed this prompt was for today and not for tomorrow...Tuesday Tracts. Think these will help in your creative endeavors today? I hope so!


Thank you so much for stopping along the scenic route today. I hope you enjoyed the time you spent here and found the prompt helpful. Let me know what you think in the comment section. Tomorrow, I'll have a different word prompt to share with you. Please visit again and bring your creative friends along. 

Before I go, I'd like to encourage you to pray for the families and friends who were adversely affected by the events of 9/11. If you don't pray but know someone who was directly affected, let them know you haven't forgotten and still care about them. 

Until next time,
Turn the page...
