January 2024 Prompt!

Happy new year!!! I’m super excited to be starting my new writing goals for the year. If you’ve been following me, then you know that every year I write twelve short stories (one a month). Some years I’ve tried to connect the stories, and others are more random.

So, here’s this year’s short story challenge:

  1. Write a short story every month based on the prompt.
  2. Write at least 1500 words per story.
  3. Lastly, share the story here!

I’m ready to get started! The first short story of the month prompt is:

“Conversation on a Train”

Write the Story

This year I’m using more simplified prompts to help me expand my stories a bit. The prompts I’ve used in the past have had more details and have always felt like starting points for me. I’m hoping to use these more open-ended prompts to see what I can come up with from very few details.

Anyway, whatever projects you’re currently working on, I hope they’re going well.

Happy reading and writing today and every day!
