Creative Writing Prompts and Exercises can help you find ideas for writing stories or poems. LitBridge has thousands of creative writing prompts that are aimed to help spark ideas for writing. The creative writing prompts are separated by fiction and poetry but I suggest you read all of them since many of the creative writing prompts can be used for Creative Nonfiction, Poetry and Fiction. Use these creative writing prompts to help get the ideas flowing and to help develop your work. Like our Facebook page or Twitter Page to get more information about new creative writing prompts.
