My favorite daily simple writing prompt–this simple writing prompt is so much fun and perfect for journaling!
Every once in a while we play a little game around here called CURRENTLY. It’s my favorite because it’s a simple writing prompt that doesn’t feel like a writing prompt. It gets your thoughts flowing while also capturing a moment in time in your life. And those little moments are priceless, especially when you look back on them a year or two from now.
You could fill a whole notebook with weekly or monthly CURRENTLYs, or just keep this simple writing prompt in your back pocket for the next time you want to hone those observation + reflection skills.
Want to play? Fill out whatever pops in your head for each category—the less you think about it, the more fun this simple writing prompt will be.
LOVING // Train rides. I love, love, love riding the train. And I know it makes me crazy, but now that we’ve moved just north of Richmond, the long train ride to NYC is the very best. The scenery, guys—you’ve got to try it.
READING // I’m not sure exactly how it started, but Jarrett decided to get back into mysteries, and now he and I are on an Agatha Christie kick. I started with And Then There Were None. (I guessed the killer! My crowning achievement in life.) And I just started The Mysterious Affair at Styles. They are a ridiculously fun yet mind-bending break—perfect if you want to traipse into a genre that isn’t your norm.
