Day 4, Winter 2026, Mini 1000

A bonus prompt!

Hi friends.

Today we will write 1000 words. Together. Just for fun. Just for us.

I had these prompts sitting around, something I had generated to use during workshops I taught at the beginning of the year. I liked them a lot, but I couldn’t quite slot them in with everything else. I was thinking a lot about past, present, and future for the workshop in general, and how we manage information across different timelines and moments in our lives. These prompts can be used for you if you’re writing memoir, or for one of your characters if you’re writing fiction, but for brevity’s sake, I’m going to just address “you” in these prompts.
