A one line prompt in a diner in Omaha got me writing again after 9 months off
I hadn't written a single thing since last winter, then a guy at a diner in Omaha slid me a napkin with one line on it: write about a character who can only lie on Tuesdays. I got 4 pages out of that napkin before my food even showed up, and the whole thing turned into a short story I actually like. That's the thing about prompts for me, they work when they box you in instead of leaving everything open. What's the shortest prompt that ever got you unstuck?
