Writings By Vinni

Prompts?  What is it?  Prompts is a way for writer’s to get out of the writing slump; to get their creative juices flowing.  I just started using prompts to get my thoughts flowing again.  I got myself a notebook that I record my topic ideas in along with the prompts I have used.  As artists who paint or take photos, subject ideas can be at a stand still.  A blank canvas waiting to be filled with vibrant colors.  A camera waiting to capture that special photo.  Writing is no different.  A blank page in a journal or on a computer screen can be daunting.  “What do I write about today?” 

Prompts sure do help!   I enjoy the challenges that prompts give me to keep going.  Just a mere 20 minutes a day, I am developing a habit of writing.  With my notebook, I am staying organized in my thoughts and ideas.  I have a book filled with prompts that I can refer to when I feel too dry to write.  You may see a prompt and my piece that follows it here in this blog!
