Every list of creative writing prompts for adults seems to assume you want to write about your deepest traumas. 'Write about the worst thing that ever happened to you.' 'Describe a moment of profound loss.' Sometimes I just want to write something fun or weird or silly. I'm in a community writing group and we take turns bringing prompts, but I'm running out of ideas that aren't either too serious or too childish. I found some good ones recently about inanimate objects having conversations—like two buildings across the street from each other suddenly gaining the ability to talk . That was so fun and weird. Or writing from the perspective of a mushroom communicating underground . Anyone have prompts that are imaginative and playful without being dumb? I want to write, not cry.
