Knight of Wands

I'm going to be posting daily prompts to inspire writing, art or journaling. Use these as you would like to help keep your creative practices moving.

Key words/ideas:

  • travel and adventure

  • restlessness

  • spontaneity

Some thoughts that occur to me:

  • A character moves to another office of their company to pursue a new opportunity. They find something unusual there.

  • A character receives a message. They know the messenger is unreliable, but the consequences of getting this wrong are high. How do they respond? What are the consequences?

During January 2024 I recommend using these either to generate ideas, alongside the Solo Writer’s Curriculum theme for the month, or to prepare for the writing activity I will be suggesting next month, Flash February (28 days, 28 pieces of flash fiction).

Note that cards are drawn at random and may be drawn more than once. In that case I will repost with an additional idea. I am going to cap the number of repeats at 3 until I’ve been through the whole deck, but other than this I let the luck of the draw decide. Coming up with more ideas for the same card will force me to be more imaginative and its something I strongly recommend.
