Writing Prompts
Sheet 028
Writing 1
- What’s your favorite saying or phrase?
- What’s something that you do—or fail to do—that bothers other people in your life? Explore the topic.
- What would make tomorrow your best day of 2025 so far? Describe it in detail.
Writing 2
- Write your story of homelessness, starting with it: “It all began with…”
- Someone—perhaps many people—have hurt or injured you. Write one of them a letter. (It can be a letter of forgiveness, anger, exposure, anything.)
- What brings you joy in hard times?
Writing 3
- What’s the best way to help someone who is facing homelessness? (Make it personal, if you want.)
- Write about light or/and darkness.
- Write about your life, using the “second person” voice. (Second person is “You” — as if the reader is you. E.g., “You wake up. Your mouth tastes like sawdust. You stumble to the bathroom and avoid looking in the mirror.”)
