My favorite time to write is in the morning. With a clear mind and a cup of coffee, I find that I get some of my best work done during these quiet hours. Every morning, I start the day with my pen and my journal. While journaling, we have the time to reflect and get a better understanding of our own truths. These journal prompts are specifically tailored for writers to help you get a better sense of the world you may want to create on the page.
Here are ten writing prompts to help get your creativity flowing. Amuse-toi bien!
1. What is your memory of when you were the happiest? How did it feel, look, smell, taste?
2. When have you done something that scared you? What compelled you to do it?
3. When have you had to tell a hard truth? What did that feel like?
4. What makes you feel pure joy?
5. If you could choose what you dreamt about each night, what would you dream about?
6. When do you feel most authentically yourself? What stops you from feeling this way all the time?
