Becky's Writers' Block Busters: Summer Edition

Hello hello hello, all! Want to get a jump-start on your summer writing? Then how about some prompts to get you going?

Here are your standard reminders before we start the fun. Remember that these prompts are not specific questions to be answered. They are just words, phrases, and ideas that are meant to jump-start your creativity. It's wonderful if your response ties in closely with the prompt, if that's the idea you have, but it's equally wonderful if its relevance to the prompt is just some odd leap you made in your head. If you want to play but you're having trouble, think of it as word association. Read each prompt over, write down the first sentence that comes to mind for each, and run with one of those!

Here are your prompts:

1. Leaving on a jet plane.

2. Graduation.

3. A not-so-natural illness.

4. Learned taste aversion.

5. "Red is so your color."

Have fun!
