Here’s a post to combat something artists know too well: the dreaded artist’s block.
You could be a great author, painter, composer, songwriter, actor, anything – but perhaps you just can’t think of a way to express it. You want to do something, but what can you do?
Have a look at this list of prompts that I’ve collated for use, as I face artist’s block way too often. 31 prompts to last a month, and by then I might have posted more.
You are welcome to use any (or all) of these prompts for any purpose.

- 30. Confusion
- 29. The night
- 28. A child’s dreams
