Description:

Greetings! Are you an avid writer? Someone who is looking to get more into it? Someone who writes as a hobby? This is the perfect swap for you.

As someone who writes on occasion I know it's difficult sometimes to get inspiration or ideas. You can only stretch your mind so much in order to come up with new fresh ideas. So this is why I decided to do this swap.

The goal: To share multiple different style writing prompts for your partners inspiration!

Format: Letter or card. Make it personal, add a little note or design a nice card. Add some stickers to the envelope. Make it feel like you care and put some effort into it.

Parameters: - At least (5) prompts that have limitations. For example: "Describe what you see out your window in 200 words or less" or "20 things that you find breathtakingly beautiful"

-At least (5) prompts that your writing must include. For example: "Write something that has 'As she turned around she couldn't believe her eyes'"

-At least (5) unique quotes from famous or infamous people.

-At least (5) plot scenaries. (Try to make them relatively unique!) For example: "You just realized your flight is delayed for 14 hours. You need to find something to do in the city to kill time"

-At least (5) story starters. (Possible first lines of stories) For example: " Yesterday feels like it was so long ago, I never would have dreamed these kinds of things would happen to me.."

-At least (5) point of view suggestions. By this I mean ideas of people or things that you could use as inspiration for point of view pieces. For example: "Write in the point of view of your cat." or "Write in the point of view of Marilyn Monroe" or "Write in the point of view of Ghandi"

All right, that should be enough please feel free to add more if you feel so inclined. That's how we earn hearts! I know that putting specifications kind of feels like a buzzkill but I really wanted to put up different types of ideas because different people get inspired by different things. Have fun and I really look forward to seeing what you all come up with!

There will be 3 partners (feel free to send the same thing to them all). This will be international. This will be open to newbies with filled profiles. Only allowed to people who haven't had any recent no sends or recent 1's or 3's.

Let me know if there are any questions!
