Got writer's block? Need some literary laxatives?

Look no further - here are 24 writing prompts to get the creative juices flowing. Prompts such as:

  • Summarise your day. As a shopping list. As a weather report. As a pantone chart. As an album review. As a blurb for a novel. As a recipe. As a trailer voice-over.

  • Recount a span of centuries from the point of view of a tree, or a stone, or any inanimate object.

  • Write a dating app profile for a stranger or strangers (this works best/is most fun if you're in a public place!). Follow up by writing a Blind Date column about your character/s.

Two a month for one year? One an hour for one day? Each writing prompt is followed by 4 blank pages for you to write your piece.
