Kate Cavanaugh Writes | The 5 a.m. Writing Prompt Challenge (with @agingerwrites)! @KateCavanaugh | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Okay, this might be one of my new favorite writing experiments??? I'd highly recommend everyone try a variation of this writing prompt challenge (minus the early mornings lolol)!
0:00 Why 5 a.m., but more importantly, why writing prompts?
1:56 Day 1 and making my list of prompts
4:10 Day 2 and an early failure lol
5:56 Day 3 & 4
6:23 My co-experimenter gave me my prompt! THANK YOU ASH FOR USING YOUR D100 FOR GOOD. (And sharing my prompt-based "story.")
13:03 Thoughts after the experiment! Prompts are FUN and why we need more of that when writing long-form WIPs.
☟↓ QUESTIONS FOR YOU BELOOOOOW! ↓☟
D I S C U S S I O N Q U E S T I O N S :
When was the last time you used a writing prompt? How often do you use them? Have you ever tried challenging yourself to write a set amount for a specific number of days? (I know lots of people will do a Prompt A Day during NaNo?)
If you've read The Artist's Way, what were your thoughts?? (I might make a separate video about this later bahaha. I'm still sorting through some feelings.)
L I N K S M E N T I O N E D :
