Just Keep Writing: November 30, 2023 - Thursday Threads

 Welcome to the scenic route! If you're a writer participating in Nano, and you still aren't quite to that 50k goal yet, I'm cheering you on. You can do this! Maybe today's word prompt will be helpful if you're looking for a little inspiration. Let's check it out.

Just Keep Writing: Thursday Threads

If this is your first time participating in this kind of writing exercise, you're in for a treat. If you've done this with me before, just keep scrolling for the prompt.

Rules:

1. You can use any/all of the words and/or the photo in the prompt below to create a unique written work. Fiction or nonfiction, poetry or prose, even lyrics are acceptable.  
2. Please keep the material you write clean (i.e. nothing R-rated or worse) if you wish to share the link to your work here, as well as if you link back to my site. I strive to keep my site free of such things. My readers know and expect this. I respect your right to write whatever you feel you need to write. And you're free to use my prompts. But if your material is graphic, I'd rather not view it, and most of my readers will not wish to. 
3. Have fun! This type of exercise is perfect for growing in the writing craft, or for helping through a rough patch in your current WIP. If you're looking to push your author limits and you normally write in nonfiction prose, try a whimsical collection of lyrics. If you normally write poems about real life events, try your hand at a fanfic. Give yourself some room to explore.

Don't forget to leave a link to your creation (unless you're writing graphic material) so my readers and I can check out your work. I'd appreciate a link back to this post to help me reach more readers, but it's not required. 

What do you think? Can you work with these? Are they sparking ideas?

I'm so happy you stopped by the scenic route today. Did you find the post useful? Encouraging? Let me know in the comments. 

Tomorrow, I'll share my final word count from this round of NaNoWriMo and be cheering for all the participants. Whether you get 50k words, or more, or less, if you wrote at all, you still accomplished something. Way to go! 

I'll also have the first word prompt of December ready to share with you. Won't you visit again and bring a few more creative friends along? 

Until next time,
