The Prompts

January 21, 2025

We update these weekly, so you always have a fresh start.

Prompt 1

Write your internal monologue/stream of consciousness while taking a shower.

Prompt 2

Imagine you’re hiking alone in the Arctic. You know exactly what you’re doing and you’re enjoying yourself tremendously. Write about your progress, and your thoughts.

How it works

We write together in 20-minute sprints, starting at 7:30 p.m. Between sprints, we take 20-minute breaks to relax, drink and meet other writers. Running late? No worries — there are agendas at each table that can guide you on which phase of the evening you're arriving to.

Where to go
