I created a vision journal for 2021. It also includes my One Word for the year. In the video, I show you how I made it, the process for creating the content on each page and how it all ties into my One Word for the year.

I seem to be struggling with a few things at the moment. So much I want to say, yet can’t. So much I want to do, yet can’t. And all the reasons I can’t are out of my hands, out of my control. And I am finding it far too easy to focus on those

Happy mail Friday Fiction Writing Prompt
A Fiction Writing Prompt to stretch the literary muscles. No rules. No word counts. Simply write and explore.
I opened the letter and read. I had to be careful not to smudge the words, as tears of joy rolled down my cheeks
Writing prompt Expanded
Some things make us so happy that our emotions overflow. But what can make us so happy? Today’s Friday Fiction Writing Prompt is all about exploring mail that makes us so happy we cry.
Our main character, written in the first person, is reading a letter and it is happy mail. But what words could bring tears of joy to someone’s eyes?
- is it the news they have been waiting for?
- the news they never dared would arrive?
- is it a confirmation of something or a positive change in fortune?
- in a digital age what is so important that it arrived via the post?
- or, is this a past event being described, before the advent of email, texting and messaging?
The choice, as always, is yours. Put pen to paper or finger to keyboard and write, that’s the only rule. As always these writing prompts are optional and entirely open to your own interpretation. Use them as a starting point for a short story or something a little more grandiose. If you do write something, please share it or a link, in the comments or tag me #ffwp. I’d love to read what you create. Write and enjoy the learning process.

The dream Friday Fiction Writing Prompt
A Fiction Writing Prompt about dreaming to stretch the literary muscles. No rules. No word counts. Simply write and explore.
My eyes snapped open. I was wide awake. But the dream was still vivid.
Writing Prompt Expanded
This Friday Fiction Writing Prompt is about stretching your imagination muscles. Dreams are not fully understood. More importantly for us, they don’t follow the normal physical laws of reality. It’s time to play around with some fundamental laws of nature.
The trouble with dreams
Dreams take place in our brains while we sleep. Sometimes we remember them, other times we don’t. We might capture fragments or feelings or sometimes be able to construct a convincing narrative from them. However, in dreams
- things don’t always happen in order
- places and people can become confused and mixed-up
- emotions can be exaggerated or non-existent
- friends and family can act out of character
- places can be known, amalgamated or pure fantasy
- The natural laws of gravity and nature can become warped
In other words, dreams are creative playgrounds for writers. They go beyond the normal constraints of a simple narrative. There are no limits to what your dream can be about. Describe your dream and draw the reader into this ‘strange’ land of the subconscious. No rules, just write and enjoy.
As always these writing prompts are optional and entirely open to your interpretation. Use them as a starting point for a short story or something a little more grandiose.
