The Best Prompts to Spark Your Creativity! For most of us, creative ideas don't rain down from the heavens or knock on our doors. We can stare at that blank page all we want--ready, willing and eager to write--and nothing happens.

So I've spent years developing prompts to fuel that take-off, making sure each one offers the inspiration writers crave. Many of these are specifically designed to challenge the writer's skills, and help bring their work to the next level. No matter your writing goals--publication, fulfillment, improved technique or just having fun--getting started is the first step toward success. And sometimes, all that takes is a spark.
