Writing Prompt #9: They Did What?
2024's Write 52 Stories in 52 Weeks
In case you missed it, the delay of these prompts has been due to a little medical mystery tour I am on. I wrote a little about it here. While mysteries still abound, I was able to return to prompt land this Friday to offer up this gem!
Looking for Just the Prompt?
This week’s prompt
The prompt, taken from a They Did What? card is defined as a prompt that inspires you to “Write a story about a character type you know, in a situation you’re not used to seeing them in.” This card prompts us with this:
The world’s deadliest assassin is brought low by… a head cold. But what happens when the ailing assassin gets a phone call for a new job?
Remember, if this prompt doesn’t inspire you this week, then search around on the playlist 52 Stories in 52 Weeks - Prompts.
Or, if you find yourself inspired by photos, hopefully you caught this week’s IG PhotoPrompt
