Get a Writing Prompt
For a decade, Fifteen Minutes of Fiction had a weekly writing prompt. Some of these are specific to certain times of year, or specific holidays. They are presented here in no particular order; click the "Get Another" link to see another randomly selected prompt.The Thirty-Seventh Floor
The following is the very first writing prompt that was ever posted on the site. I thought it would be fun to revisit the idea, and see what people come up with this time around!An elevator got stuck on the 37th floor of a skyscraper. One or more people were stuck in the elevator. Write a short story or story fragment about what happened.
A possible first sentence: "On the day the elevator got stuck on the 37th floor, Jeff's life was forever changed."
