Directions: You can learn more about Writer’s Workshop here….it’s never to late to jump in!! Here is what you must do:

  • Choose a prompt that inspires you most.
  • Write.
  • Come back this Thursday and paste the URL to your actual post (do this by clicking the title of your post after you hit publish, an extended URL will come up in the address bar. That’s the URL you want to use) into the Mister Linky that will be up…this way anyone can click on your name and head over to your place to see what you wrote.

Feel free to write on more than one prompt if you so desire. I do it all the time, but it’s my game…and I don’t know how to shut-up…so it should be expected. And remember the more comment love you give, the more comment love you get so comment comment away.

The Prompts:

Which one will YOU choose??

1.) Write a mock interview with a celeb of your choosing. Take advantage of having the power to make it go however you dream.
(inspired by Jessi from Shuggilippo)

2.) Describe your worst winter weather story.
(inspired by Alisha from A Day In The Life Of Okie Rednecks)

3.) Tell us about that scar.
(inspired by Katie from Rooftop Harmonies)

4.) A list of dos and don’ts.

5.) Write a poem to your love for Valentine’s Day. :)

If you have a chance, try to stop by and say hi to the person who inspired the prompt you’ll be writing on this week.
