Writing Prompts

Sheet 071

Writing 1

  • Jobs: what was the worst one you had? Or a favorite? Write anything.
  • Valentine’s Day. What do you think about it? Love it? Dislike it?
  • Write about a topic that you have to write about. It may be something that keeps coming up in your life, or an interest, hope, event, urgent issue, anything.

Writing 2

  • What about fear—either generally or about fear in your life.
  • What’s a gift—physical, spiritual, relational, etc.—that you’ve been given?
  • Continue your previous writing.

Writing 3

  • Write about guilt, shame, forgiveness, repentance. How do you navigate all this? Specific memories around this? People that come to mind?
  • Imagine you have one year left to live. What do you want that year to look like?
  • Continue either of your previous writings.
