All the WNG 3-5 Line Writing Prompts (So Far)

All the No Pressure Prompts So Far

Last Update: 6/10/2013

Note: My apologies for the hashtags and some abbreviated writing in the prompts below. I often get ideas for the prompts while offline and post them on Twitter/Facebook using my phone, then cut and paste them into a Word document later. As time allows, I hope to go back and edit these into full sentences and minus hashtags. If you’d like writing prompts sent 3-5 times a week, follow me on Twitter @Julie_WrdNrdGrl or WordNerdGirl on Facebook. This page of writing prompts will be updated every couple of weeks. -- WNG
