Writing Prompt 3: You Won’t Know If You Don’t Try

Hey remember last week when I said I’d posted my creations for you to read? Turns out I was kidding, I haven’t posted any creations yet. I figure I’ll eventually segue into some kind of coffee-induced mania where I end up writing prolifically and posting like…10 creations in one day, so be ready for that when it happens.

It turns out life gets in the way of writing about 90% of the time, but I’m doing what I can, when I can. Plus, I’m not even really sure how many people are actually reading these anyway, so I could just be talking to myself.

If you follow me on social media, keep up with the posts on Thursdays and Fridays of the characters, along with short scenes from Otherside: The Serenity. I will be posting these up until the release date, sometime in April.

Now: Onto the Writing Prompt, which if you’re like me, you’ll get to when you feel like it. Remember to free-write initially to get your inspiration going, and then turn that free-writing into 1-2 pages of fiction.

What is something that you want to learn but are too afraid to try?
