.....some writing prompts.

Tired: Write a description of what it feels like to be tired without using the word tired.

Expectations and Reality

Children look forward to reaching a new destination. Their imaginations run with details they've gleaned from adult conversations. They chatter in the car, study brochures and then reality hits. "We're here? This is it?" or "We're here, we're here."

It's no different for adults. Write a short story based on someone's expectation, and bring it to conclusion with the reality.
