Your task over the next few days is to write a piece of flash fiction, a micro memoir, or a poem
(or more than one if you’re so moved) inspired by the prompt, with one catch: it must fit on the back
of a postcard.

Snap photos of the front and back of your finished postcards, and share them with the hashtag #roadtrip. You can post them to our Flickr group, share on Twitter, or let me know in the comments
where they are.

These prompts are for you. Use them as they inspire you. Give yourself the pleasure of surprise,
the joy of some time to write and complete a small piece.

Since every road trip is better with good tunes, here’s a mix to enjoy while you write.

Be fearless, writers! I can’t wait to see what you create!

Sara at Et Voila Design has created a pendent to give away to one lucky #roadtrip writer! Be sure to let me know by Sunday night where I can see your postcard and get entered to win this beauty. I’ll post the winner on Monday!

A writing road trip, that is! We had so much fun last year writing flash fiction and micro memoir, so I’m bringing back the writer’s road trip. Each Wednesday in July, I’ll post a road-trip-related writing prompt and a music mix to get you in the groove.

Your task will be to write fiction, memoir, or poetry inspired by the prompt. The catch? It has to fit on the back of a postcard. Snap photos of the postcard’s back and front and share them using hashtag #roadtrip. You can post them on the Flickr group, share on Twitter, or let me know in the comments where they are. Every Monday I’ll post a selection of postcards for your enjoyment. At the end of the month, there will be random drawings for glamorous prizes.

These prompts are for you, whether you are a novice or seasoned writer. In fact, even if you don’t usually think of yourself as a writer, you can still play along (and know that you are, indeed, a writer!). Use the prompts as they inspire you. Give yourself the pleasure of surprising yourself, the joy of a little time to write, and complete a small piece.

Don’t miss a prompt! Click here to subscribe to the #roadtrip prompts and have them delivered right to your email!
