Welcome To Prompted 2 Write

I have always loved writing and taught it in my classes, no matter the grade. After retirement, I published several books and began blogging. I love it, but there are days when I can't think of anything to write. When I taught writing to children, I always gave them a writing prompt, making it easier for them. I hope to post writing prompts for all ages. This site will be helpful to homeschoolers as well a classroom teachers. It is for anyone who loves writing or anyone who is required to write. Please let me see some of your writing.

MS:  My dad and I were plowing the garden.  Suddenly the tiller hit something hard and stopped.  My dad tried to see what it hit, be couldn't move the dirt.  I went to the shed and got a shovel.  You will never believe what we dug up.

HS: Jeremy always parked his car in the backyard.  That way he didn't park behind one of his parents.  His habit of driving fast, whipping around the back corner of the house, and stopping quickly was the talk of the neighbor.  "You just wait.  One day he will come around that corner and find something he wasn't expecting".  The neighbors would say.  That day came yesterday.  He drove in the driveway, avoided the broken piece of concrete, came around the back of the house, and crashed into...

A:  We received a phone call from one of our dear friends, Albert.  "You have to come over here.  Something has landed in my backyard and I need you."  Now Albert is known to stretch the truth, especially if he has been drinking.  "Describe it to me."  I told him.  This was his description.
