I have been in a huge “idea” rut lately. I’m going to try some of your prompt suggestions and try to jump start things around here. THANK YOU

I can also see it working to just use the caption and not look at the photo at all.

James,
Wouldn’t that be better as “T’was a dark and stormy night….”

I love the 5th sentence prompt. I’m going to give that one a try! Random magazine photographs (without looking at the caption) work well for me.

Ironically, this time of year you could ACTUALLY start off with “It was a dark and stormy night…” and be completely serious about it!
