Imagine yourself as the last person on Earth (or so you believe). Humanity has been devastated by a cataclysmic event, such as a deadly plague, an alien invasion, the rise of a new dominate species, whatever you can think of. What would your last journal entry

"How do you find your inspiration?" @fudo randomly asked me that. (Let's thank him for giving me an idea and for making this curiosity come into light). I have to say this first, It's actually hard to find inspiration, I'm on a different kind of slump and it's seriously not going anywhere. So what kind of things inspire you? Any advice? Any habits you want to share? Cause I had my own habits, since anyone can be stuck sometimes, it just means you have to change your habits and try different ways to make things spark again. Share want you have learned through years of experience then learn something different here.

This will kinda end up as a personal challenge. Sort of. [For those who are parents: What would you like to say for your child? Your dreams for them, your expectations, has there been disappointment? Was there a time your child had done something you aren't completely okay with, and had you told them you forgive them? Which experience did you your child rebelled so much? Why do you think they rebelled? Did they ever rebelled against you? How many times did you cried for your child? Any mistakes you didn't notice up until now unless you contemplate on it? How much do you think you know them well?] [For those who were once a child and those who's not yet a parent: What are the words you couldn't tell to your parents? Did you slipped your tongue and wasn't supposed to say those words? How many times did you keep it in until your feelings burst? What do you want to show them? Has there been disappointment in your part? Have you forgiven them? How much do you understand your parents? How much do you think you know them well?] So how much of those questions and answers conveyed in real life? Both positive and negative thoughts. Here's another challenge, the personal part. If there was, and your feelings aren't properly conveyed to them, slowly and gently communicate. This challenge is just an emotional trash dumping. Dump your craps here then tell those things to them, in a good approach. However, it's your choice to follow it through the end. I'll be dumping mine too.

I rarely had a dream now. If I had one, it would usually be mysteriously chaotic and nerve-wrecking, though I'll forget it afterwards. When was the last time you had one? Can you still remember it? How was it? What did you dream about?

Picture yourself in a four cornered room with a single window that has enough space for a single bed, a cabinet, a couch, and a table. It is either in all black or in all white. Now tell me how will you fill up that room; What kind of things will you hide in there? What kind of emotions were you feeling while thinking about the things you wanted to do inside the room? What kind of room will it be? What kind of view will you see beyond the window? And if you were given a choice to either stay inside that room forever and to never get out or to leave that room you worked hard to fill it in with the things the way you want, and never go back inside again. What will you choose? Write in a way that is comfortable to you, It could be a negative or a positive thought. This could be a reflection to the things you like or maybe to the things you hate.

Let's talk about writing! I'll include some prompt questions below but feel free to discuss whatever crosses your mind :) Please tag me! Barrage of questions in 3...2...1... What are your writing goals for 2022? What are your writing goals in general? What kind of pieces do you love and want to see more of? What do you think is kind of played out? What inspires you? What do you think is painfully boring? Do you want to be commercially successful or do you prefer to keep writing as an unadulterated hobby? What do you consider a hallmark of good writing? What advice would you give to your past creative self or even to other writers?

Write about something you're still holding onto. It can be a memory, person, thing, etc.

I have a friend who plays drums and is at the age where he needs to decide if he will study music or something else. This kid has done nothing since the age of 5 but be a drummer. He still loves it and is passionate about it. Will studying something else interfere with his musical aspirations or be a helpful backup? I want all answers from the practical to the dreamy - and everything in-between.

Write a story centered around a journal found in some disclosed location. It is up to you how you want the story to go.

I am mainly seeking opinion pieces however if you do wish to cite anything please ensure that you provide a citation of any kind at the end of the piece.

How has covid sparked your creative side? Has it negatively impacted your artistic talent? Or has it fueled your passions in a positive way?

I'm curious how everyone is fairing with their sanity.

OKAY this is not about relationships. I want to know your school is closed or not (and with a general location if you don't mind) or just any other details about how you're fairing with the coronavirus. I'm curious about how other people are handling it. I'm only giving this challenge two weeks because that's when my school reopens. (Please enter because I'm so interested in other parts of the world/country!!)

I'm excited to read the ideas that come with this one sentence. You can choose any type of writing style whether it's heartfelt, sad, silly, literally anything. Number one rule: HAVE FUN!

Tell me what time it is right now for you....without actually mentioning the literal time on the clock. Keep us (the readers) guessing!

Tell me what kind of challenges you like to enter. What do you like about challenges? What do you dislike? What subject matters intrigue you the most? How do you prefer the winner be chosen and why? What do you think affects how many likes and views a post or author gets? Do you believe that talent/subject matter is directly correlated to those likes and views? Express yourself freely, don't hold back. And please, don't be a jerk to anyone who disagrees with you.

Tell me the funniest story you can concoct. Please tag me with @HEDunkle. Have fun!
