Novel Kicks Writing Room: A Prompt Every Hundred Words

Welcome back to the Novel Kicks Writing Room. 

I hope you’re having a great week so far and excited to get going on this week’s writing exercise.

I am personally looking forward to giving this a go.

There are five lines below. Start your work with the first line and write one hundred words. Then, once you’ve reached that word goal, add the second line. Write one hundred words, then use the third prompt. Repeat until you’ve used all the lines.

The lines to include are –

  1. It happened the day after my tenth birthday
  2. The elephant was walking down the road
  3. My Grandmother knocked on the door
  4. We drove for a few hours
  5. You’ve always had a determination I’ve admired.

How did you find that exercise? Did you enjoy it? Did you find it hard? I’d love to hear from you in the comments.

I'm Laura. I started Novel Kicks back in 2009 as I wanted a place to discuss books and writing - two loves of my life. As someone who has anxiety, these two things give me, and I am sure countless others, a much needed escape.
There is a monthly book club, writing exercises, prompts, reviews, author interviews, competitions and guest posts. I cover many genres and I hope there is something for everyone.
I grew up by the sea in Dorset and currently live in Poole with my husband, Chris and three cats. I love writing and have a BA (Hons) in Creative Writing from Falmouth University. I am writing my first book. If only I could stop pressing delete. Chris has threatened to stop it from working. Haha.
I have always loved creative writing since I was in first school and would very much like to meet my teacher, Miss Sayers, to say thank you for all the encouragement she gave me then.
When not writing, I love reading, cats, Disney, singing (I can't sing but this doesn't stop me,) and falling into a good TV show or film. If I could step into any fictional world, it would be amongst the characters in ABC's Once Upon a Time.
I love reading many genres and discovering new authors.
