Welcome to Week Eighteen of our 2023 Writing Prompt Journey! Sorry for the late newsletter this week…I got hit with a bug that’s been going around, but I think I’m finally on the mend :)

Without further ado, we have three new fiction, non-fiction, and poetry prompts waiting for you this week. I can’t wait to see what you all come up with!

If you’d like more info on this Writing Journey, including the few simple rules, click here. And if you would like to read some of the wonderful writing in response to our prompts so far, check out the links at the bottom of this newsletter!

(If I have missed adding any of your prompt responses to the links, please let me know! The bookmarks on Medium were giving me issues a few weeks ago, so I definitely want to make sure no one was missed).

The Storyteller’s Vault on Medium publishes poetry, fiction, and nonfiction works that are written in response to prompts from the Writing Prompt Journey.

If you would like to be a writer, please comment on this post and include your Medium @username so we can add you.

The Aim of The Storyteller’s Vault on Medium

  • To create a supportive community of writers and readers! Please spend some time reading, sharing, and supporting each other’s work, as that will help all of us to grow while doing what we love.
  • To create a safe space where we all feel encouraged to write more. It’s what we love doing, so I hope this publication makes it easier to spend more time doing what we love. I will be highlighting, clapping, and commenting as much as possible to show my support for all the talent and hard work!

The Goal of the 2023 Writing Prompt Journey

Write as much as you can this year. Write weekly. Write three times weekly (there are three prompts a week each for Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Poetry). Go all out and try writing every day!

With these prompts as your inspiration, you can just sit down and start writing.

How to Get Started

Subscribe to my Substack newsletter and/or subscribe to The Storyteller’s Vault publication on Medium, and every week we will send out links so you can access all the prompt posts for FREE on Medium (whether you are a paid member on that platform or not).

If you’d like to become a paid member on Medium, I’d love it if you sign up through my link here. It helps support my writing as I receive a small portion of your membership fee, but it doesn’t cost you any extra than a regular membership. Win-win!
