“One Creative Writing Prompt A Day,” by Lita Kurth 

 

I loved this writing book to practice my skills. I loved that the prompts were super random and felt so new to other ones I’ve used before. Some examples of prompts used is “Describe your music- celebrity characters favorite t-shirt and a particular place they wore it” and “An artist plans to honor their mentor with a work of art. Describe the proposed work” etc. The entire book is filled with ideas like this that are so random that I really had to take time and think before writing instead of the most used and realistic things to write about. I loved this book, 5 out of 5 stars. 

 

Thank you for the copy, Netgalley.

I received an ARC from the publisher in exchange for an honest review

One Creative Writing Prompt a Day by Lita Kurth is a prompt journal focusing on plot ideas, prose, and the senses. Going through these, I really appreciated how some of them were linking to other prompts while others were focusing specifically on word choice and how that impacts prose. 

There are some speculative prompts mixed in with the contemporary and historical prompts, which makes it a good choice for writers who like to dabble in multiple genres or genre-bending.

Content warning for four prompts in regards to how it uses Indigenous, Black American, and Brazilian history. 

I would recommend this to writers looking for a prompt book that focuses on leveling up multiple skills
