NEW-LEAF WRITING PROMPTS
Members are encouraged to engage with the seasonal writing prompts, available in each prospective tab above, to help integrate their characters into the current setting and plot.
Seasonal writing prompts change each season and are completely self-paced, and you can engage with them all season long. There are no deadlines, timed-posts, or prizes* available for creating and/or completing a prompt. They are a simply a tool to help create "topical" threads. You can follow a prompt word for word, or change it up and use it as a springboard.
*Seasonal writing prompt threads count toward a New Year's Sun Path if you chose that path.
