Welcome to The Time Is Now, your weekly poetry and fiction prompts to keep you writing all year long.   

POETRY PROMPT

Find a poem that is different in style and approach than the kind of poem you usually write. Read it repeatedly until it opens for you, scan it to better understand its musical qualities, and finally memorize it. Write your own poem inspired by the poem you've studied.   

 
FICTION PROMPT

Write a scene for a story with two characters involved in the Occupy Wall Street movement. Use news stories about the movement in order to gather details to create a realistic setting.   

 

THE BEST BOOKS FOR WRITERS
