An Empty House
Photo by Kiwihug on Unsplash Ever since I moved into a new place last summer, I can’t stop thinking about how weird it was to see my old house totally emptied. This week, set your story in an empty house. Has it been abandoned? Is it being renovated? Does your character supposed to be there, or are they sneaking around? The choice is yours!

Party Time
Photo by Adi Goldstein on Unsplash I’ve been thinking about crowds and especially the sound of crowds a lot lately—something that’s been pretty absent for me for the last two years—and that got me thinking about parties. Birthday, retirement, anniversary, you name it, there’s usually a party to celebrate it. For this week, set your story at a party. Post your response (500 words or fewer) in the comments below.
Sea Bound
Photo by Jasmin Chew on Unsplash It’s chilly outside, friends, and I’m missing the beach! The sea has always captivated me—so much so that I’d wanted to be a marine biologist when I was young. Now that I live by the sea, I can satisfy my craving for salty air and the screech of sea birds whenever I need to (even if it’s too cold to get into the water!). For today’s prompt, write about someone who is bound to the sea. Post your response (500 words or fewer) in the comments below.
