Paint Chip Poetry Prompt #13

It’s week 13 and I’m late! I usually have these done by the day before at the latest, but this week has been crazy. Working from home is exhausting and doesn’t leave a lot of room for creativity. This week’s prompt is to write about...

Paint Chip Poetry Prompt #12

Woooohoooo! We made it to a dozen! Are you all as excited as I am? Given the current state of the world, it’s the little things that keep us going. This week our paint chip prompt is to write about heartbreak. Remember, you don’t have...

Paint Chip Poetry Prompt #11

It’s week #11 and last week I had the most players yet: four! So I’m thinking starting this weekly poetry prompt wasn’t a big mistake. But this week’s prompt will have you (and me) writing about something that was a big mistake. The prompt words...

Paint Chip Poetry Prompt #5

I can’t believe it’s week five of my Paint Chip Poetry Prompt. Only 47 more to go after this one. That’s assuming I can manage to stick with it all year long. Participation hasn’t been as robust as I had hoped, but there have been...

Paint Chip Poetry Prompt #4

It’s now week #4 of my Paint Chip Poetry Prompt and this week we’re daydreaming . . . again. Isn’t that what poetry writing is all about? Daydreaming? I’m daydreaming that 10 people are going to read the prompt and be inspired to write something...

Paint Chip Poetry Prompt #3

It’s week #3 of my Paint Chip Poetry Prompt. The last two weeks the words were quite arbitrary and odd. I really do pull them from the paint chip deck randomly, so I never know what we’ll get. This week, with one exception, I think...
