Chess Land Picture Writing Prompts star
I'm going to share some pictures with you in this article. You need to study each pictures, ask 'what if' questions and come up with stories that could be written based on each photograph. Allow your imagination to take flight and explore all possibilities.

Doomsday Picture Writing Prompts star
I’m sure that by now you are aware of the rumor that the world will end on December 21, 2012. Do you believe everything will really end on that date? I don’t, but this is an opportunity for you, as a writer, to create stories that depict the end of life as we know it.

Exercises in Creative Writing star
Here are some exercises to get your creative juices flowing. Have fun!!!

Hauntingly Elegant Doll Picture Writing Prompts star
What do you see when you look at this picture? Do you see just an old worn-out doll? Perhaps you think she is ready to be thrown away. Or do you see her as material for a story? I see her as a fighter and a survivor. She looks as though she has come through a terrible ordeal.

Huntsman Spider Picture Writing Prompts star
Pictured below is a huntsman spider, and he is sitting ever so peacefully on a roll of toilet paper. Aside from the fact that I would not like to see this in my bathroom, the picture is awesome! Can you look beyond the picture to see the possible stories?

Picture Writing Prompts star
I'm going to share some pictures with you in this article. You need to study each picture and ask 'what if' questions, coming up with stories that could be written based on each photograph. Allow your imagination to take flight and explore all possibilities.

Road Through the Woods Picture Writing Prompts star
The road winds gracefully amidst the trees. Is this all you see when you look at the picture? Or does your mind go wild thinking of what could be at either end of this road? If you look closely, you will notice a gate, one that apparently hasn't been closed for a while.

Skull Picture Writing Prompts star
Just as cobwebs left in your house can be used for Halloween decorations, so can any random skulls you find laying around. This skull is one of the only Halloween adornments at my house. How could you use a goat skull in your Halloween story?

So Many Phobias star
Is there anything that you are afraid of? Anything that you try to stay away from? Everyone has their own set of fears. Sometimes there is a reason for those fears, sometimes not. A phobia is a persistent, irrational fear of an object, activity, situation or person.

Strange Manias star
Manias have been defined as uncontrollable compulsions, desires, or urges. Are they uncontrollable? That depends on what you decide for the character you create. In the following article, I present to you 5 of the strangest manias in existence.

Thanksgiving Writing Prompts star
Here are some writing prompts for you to think about while getting ready for your yummy Thanksgiving feast. Have fun with them!

The Christmas Spider star
What do these eight-legged creepy crawlies have to do with Christmas? In Australia, a country famous for its dangerous spiders, there really is a Christmas spider. Other countries have legends about spiders and Christmas. How many stories will you write that include a Christmas spider?

Tree Picture Writing Prompts star
What do you see when you look at a picture of a bunch of trees? Do you just see some pretty trees or do you see more? What can you read into this picture? When you look at any picture, do you only see what is right in front of your eyes?

Valentine's Day Picture Writing Prompts star
A heart made out of red roses would be the perfect way to show your love and affection for someone on Valentine's Day. Red roses are symbolic of love, a love that is stronger than thorns, and romance. The heart signifies life. What ideas for stories will your muse suggest to you from the picture?

Volcano Picture Writing Prompts star
When you look at a picture, do you just see the obvious? Or are you one of those people who dig beneath the surface to find out what is hidden underneath? Do you ask 'what if' questions about what is in the picture? Asking questions is a great why to come up with ideas for stories
