As a verb, to prompt means to cue to get going. As a noun, a writing prompt is a suggestion of what to write about. In this workshop, “Prompt!” will be both.

Come enjoy what happens when the same prompt activates the very unique ideas and stories of multiple people. We will have writing time for 4 – 6 prompts. This fun and inspiring workshop with Diana Altman has been so enjoyed these past two summers, we’re aspiring to making it annual! This year, as time allows, there will be some feedback to writers and their “Prompt” creations!
