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.

Anxiety

Writing has the power to evoke -- to help us experience certain emotions and feelings even without mentioning them explicitly.

Write a short story, essay, or poem that evokes the feeling of anxiety, without using the word "anxiety" in it. Try to "show" the reader how it feels to you or to a character.
