Write Your Own Stories
Fun Prompts to Get Started!
• Some benefits include heightened creativity, improved
communication skills, and therapeutic effects.
• Think of J.K. Rowling, Stephen King, or Chimamanda Ngozi
Adichie – all master storytellers who've achieved success through
the magic of their narratives.
Why Write Your Own Stories?
• Storytelling is a powerful form of self-expression that transcends
boundaries.
Overcoming Writer's Block
Writer's block is
a common
hurdle, but
prompts can
be the key to
overcoming it.
As the saying
goes, "The
only way to do
great work is
to love what
you do."
Use prompts to
reignite your
passion for
writing and push
through creative
challenges.
What Are Prompts?
• They come in various forms – words, phrases, images,
or scenarios.
• Writing prompts are catalysts for creativity, serving as
sparks to ignite the imagination.
Types
of
Prompts
Word Prompts
1. A single word can trigger a multitude of ideas.
2. Example Word Prompts: "Whisper,"
"Ephemeral," "Mystique."
3. Choose a word that resonates with you and let your
imagination take the lead.
4. Use the chosen word as the foundation for your
story, exploring its nuances and possibilities.
Image Prompts
• Visual stimuli can lead to unique and captivating
narratives.
• Images have the power to evoke emotions and
spark creativity.
• Displaying captivating visuals can inspire unique
and personal narratives.
• Select an image that speaks to you and build a
story around the emotions and scenes it conjures.
Scenario Prompts
• Set the stage with specific situations that
prompt imaginative storytelling.
• Example Scenario Prompts: "Lost in a parallel
universe," "A deserted island with a
mysterious cave."
• Crafting scenarios sets the stage for engaging
plots.
• Envision the scenario and let your creativity
flow as you build a story around it.
Character Prompts
• Develop compelling protagonists and
antagonists with character prompts.
• Characters drive the narrative. Strong characters
make memorable stories.
• Character prompts provide a foundation for
creating complex and intriguing individuals.
• Explore the depths of your characters'
personalities, motivations, and conflicts.
Tips for Effective Storytelling
