A Fiction Writing Prompt to stretch the literary muscles. No rules. No word counts. Simply write and explore.
I opened the doors and stepped out on the balcony. The view was amazing, but it was the air that took my breath away
Writing Prompt Expanded
This week’s Friday Fiction Writing Prompt is all about comparison. It’s time to compare one thing to another.
The prompt focuses on fresh air. Our narrator has arrived at a place where the air is different from what they are used to. This could be because they are from a smog-ridden city and they are now at the coast or out in the countryside, or the other way round. The choice, as always is yours.
The aim is to stretch your descriptive powers by focussing on the differences between the two. Use…
- simile
- metaphor
- exaggeration
The bigger the difference between the two places, the more captivated your reader will be, and the more likely they might relate to one of your descriptions. Emphasise the difference between the narrator’s memory and their current experience.
As always these writing prompts are optional and entirely open to your own interpretation. Use them as a starting point for a short story or something a little more grandiose. If you do write something, please share it or a link, in the comments or tag me. I’d love to read what you create. Write and enjoy the learning process.
