New themes Every week.
Welcome to the first of many, Mondays writing tips 7-day weekly writing prompts. Every Monday I will be posting a 7-day calendar with challenging writing prompts to help stimulate your mind and get the creative juices flowing.
Sometimes we just need a break from our current writing projects and explore other avenues of writing. Or maybe you are experiencing writer’s block. Maybe these prompts will help.
How it works
Each week I will post a different theme allowing you to exercise your writing technics in a wide range of fields. Try and set a goal for each story to be between 750 and 1000 words. You never know, one just may turn into a novel. Have fun! Feel free to post your stories too. I would love to read them.

This week’s theme is “On the job”
MONDAY – A dog walker loses a dog.
TUESDAY – A commercial fisherman goes overboard.
WEDNESDAY – A fireman has to rescue a young child trapped in a 5th-floor apartment.
THURSDAY – A Field Guide has a heart attack while doing a tour.
FRIDAY – A tree trimmer falls from a tall tree.
SATURDAY – A couple’s child gets its first part in a commercial.

Another tip: If you find that you have more to write after reaching 1000 words. Don’t Stop! Keep going! Let your imagination write the story.

That’s the trouble, Tina, once and I mean ‘once’ I get going, I can’t stop! The getting going can take hours, why? I simply don’t understand, maybe the fear of being interrupted, who knows!
I understand where you are coming from Sometimes it’s hard to get on that train, but once we are on we don’t want to get off.
I love this idea of themed prompts. The fireman rescuing the child really struck me. 🙂 Thank you for this
Thanks and good luck!
