I like prompts because they give me something to write about (which is the point, I think). Although their usefulness is that they limit one's choice of subject, I particularly like prompts that are open to (deliberate) misunderstanding. It's like being caged and then finding a way out that hasn't been noticed by the captor. That way, one escapes the possibility of writing the same story that everyone else does. I find visual prompts are best at this since they are so open to interpretation. |
