The Old Photos

Use the writing prompt below to inspire you to write a scene.

At the beginning of the year, you look back through the photos you took over the last year. As you open each photo, something odd happens. Your image slowly dissolves while your surroundings and those you’re with remain. What’s happening?

Spring Cleaning

Use the writing prompt below for inspiration.

You begin the process of spring cleaning by emptying out dresser drawers. One of the drawers is stuck. You tug harder and manage to pull it loose. When the drawer comes out, a picture that was wedged in the drawer comes out. You recognize yourself as a toddler in the photo, but you don’t recognize the person holding you. On the back, the date is listed as five years before you were even born. Who is really in the picture? And how do you find out?
