WRITING PROMPT
May Memoir Prompt: That One Birthday….
Also, May is a VERY special month!
Memoirists—we had a ton of fun with April’s high school prompt! I’ll do a wrap-up in the upcoming May newsletter, but in the meantime, check out all the great stories.
So…guess what May is?
Do you know?
It’s my birthday month! That’s right. On May 21st, I inch even more over the hill. In celebration of me (no shame, no shame), I thought a fun topic for the month would be birthdays!
That One Birthday
You know the one. You’ve been telling the story about it forever.
Was it your birthday or someone else's?
Did it have to do with your birthday or did it just happen to fall on that date?
Did someone forget? Or were you blessed with a crazy surprise?
It can be a happy or sad memory, as long as it’s real.
Prompt Guidelines
- Should be memoir
- It doesn’t have to take place in May
- Should be tagged “birthday”
Here’s a piece of mine about my worst birthday ever. I thought I’d share:
I can’t wait to read all of yours!
