I love to create things. This project is intended to help other people create things too! I take a lot of photos, and often when I look back at a picture I’ve taken, I get the beginning of a story that comes into my mind. So here’s the idea: I’ll post photos, and give a sort of story-starter that might help you get writing your own stories inspired by these photos and story ideas. We’ll call them “visual writing prompts”…see what you can create!

The original photos are posted on Instagram, and you can follow this project at @drdavewritingprompts. All of the posts from that account are automatically inserted into this page.

Try clicking on the photos below to get each prompt isolated in a way that can help you focus on just one picture and story-starter at a time.
