15 multi-genre creative writing prompts
Finding quality creative writing prompts that aren’t repeated across multiple sources can be difficult. I feel like I find the same concepts worded just a bit differently on every list of prompts I look for when I’m searching for myself. Realistically, how beneficial are all those lists of 100 or more prompts if half of the prompts make every single list, right?

Traveling during a pandemic
I made plans to travel to New York City for spring break several months ago. With no classes, a student media convention happening at the end of the week and a desire to tour New York University, I figured mid-March was the perfect time to finally visit the city I've been dreaming about since childhood. Then, the coronavirus pandemic happened.

Mental health in college
College is hard. It's a lot harder with a disability, especially one that a lot of people like to pretend doesn't count. I've struggled with a generalized anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder for years. Sure, that's been a challenge for what feels like my entire life, but I was never willing to call it a disability. At least, I wasn't until about a year ago.

No, you wouldn't.
I will never understand on-again-off-again relationships. I would never do that. No, you wouldn't. Not until the happy year you spent falling in love turned into cloud-chasing highs and ocean-drowning lows. Not until his deceptive, sickeningly sweet voice coaxed you back into false safety when you've begun to walk away.

An open letter to my ex best friend
You decided we weren't friends anymore without ever telling me. I asked if something was wrong, and you said no every time. But a new distance was there, and I didn't know why. You stopped speaking to me immediately after graduation, and I moved away for college three months later.
