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:

• learning

• curiosity

• new financial or career success

Some thoughts that occur to me:

• A character who starts a new job and finds huge success starts to think something else might be going on. What is it? Do they want to know?

• Come up with a secret society. How do new members come about? Come up with a list of at least 10 different options to get you past the obvious ones.

• A character discovers that something amazing and life changing is going to happen to them ... but not for a few months. How do they deal with their life in the time they have to wait.

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.
