One of my favorite books is a fantasy novel by Mary Brown, The Unlikely Ones. I like it so much that previously, I used the first sentence of the book as a creativity prompt. But, like all tales, there are more than just the first or last sentences in a book. And here...
I took this picture in 2012 when Chris and I were strolling around New York City in the East Village. I just loved the way the Ivy was taking over the building. Loved that you could barely see what was under all that Ivy which is why it’s today’s...
Today’s creativity prompt is a picture prompt. If you’ve ever been to Niagara Falls, then you know what this is. But you can only get this picture from riding on the Maid of the Mist. It always seemed interesting and mysterious to me. How cool that it was...

You’ll note that I like using nature a lot for creativity prompts. I think there are so many stories and pictures in the natural world around us. This time the picture is a tree. R is for rooted, and trees root down into the earth. But in this picture, I think...
Friday’s A to Z Challenge post is another creativity prompt. L is for Lush. This is a picture prompt. Lush has a couple of meanings. If you think my creativity prompt is about drunks, you’re wrong. The definition of lush that I’m thinking of is...
