What do you enjoy doing in your free time that you don't consider yourself an "expert" at? What have you learned from engaging in that activity or pastime?ĥ. What's something that most people don't know about you (and would be surprised to learn)?Ĥ. How did you feel once on the other side of this experience? What would the "after" you tell the "before" you?ģ. Tell me about a moment when you were terrified to do something, but you did it anyway. What lesson/tip/reassurance would you provide to him/her?Ģ. Imagine that you've traveled through time and encountered a younger version of yourself. Or tell your 6-year-old to pick a number between 1 and 30 and trust that the universe is sending you the corresponding prompt. To that end, here are 30 great writing prompts that I use both with myself and with clients to help get you out of your head in order to get you into your head! I have NO doubt that you have no problem sharing with me your perspective on just about anything-and usually in far more than 2000 words!Īll you need is for someone to ask you a question in a way that compels you to have to interrupt them to say, "Oh, I have something to say about that!" At this stage, it's about getting the stories down.
You are overthinking, and worried too much about the quality of what comes out of your mouth (or fingers). In both cases, I promise, you have something to say. The second message they'll send sounds a bit like, "Elizabeth, I'm sitting here and I'm thinking and I'm sitting here and I'm thinking and.I've got nothing," The first is, they'll message me and say, "Elizabeth, I'm supposed to write 2000 words today, and I felt like I did but then when I checked my word count, I was only at 1246.
We all get stuck (or, dare I say it, "writer's block") from time to time. I see this happen in two primary ways with clients.
