Writing Prompts: Create a Hypothetical Scenario

Well, this is terrifying. Imagine a scenario similar to the creepy and popular video game series, Five Night’s at Freddy’s.

Writing Prompts: 1,000 Words about a Picture

In a recent post, I spoke of using prompts as inspiration for posts. I am going off this list, though I am not going to follow it religiously.
