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:

  • seeking

  • innocence

  • discovering a direction

Some thoughts that occur to me:

  • Your character meets someone who claims to be a Seeker. Come up with ideas for what that could be. This will vary wildly depending on genre and world.

  • A group of children are ‘dousing’ (I remember making dousing rods out of a coat hanger as a child). They find a source of water somewhere unexpected. What is it that they’ve found?

  • Create a world where the most powerful people are those who can find a route through something otherwise impassable.

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.
