Today you are going to pick an object and write two complete pages about that object down to its very last detail.  This object can be anything form nail polish to a tree, but the purpose of this is to get you to learn to see things in ordinary objects that normal people wouldn't care to see.  This will broaden your horizons and give you a different perspective that you can take on into your writing :)  
 
Yay!  You have successfully completed two full weeks of this writing challenge :)  
Today's challenge will be a rather fun one to test how quick you are with your imagination.  What I want you to do is write down the word "shopping" and for a full two minutes I want you to start a story from that single word and not stop writing until the full two minutes are done.  This will be challenging but is a good 
 
Welcome to the lucky thirteen writing challenge!
Today's writing challenge will fit today, because it will revolve around the number thirteen.
Your task is to write a writing piece that will be fiction and revolves around a character who is somehow connected to the number thirteen in their life and how it affects them.  Your character can have thirteen family members, belongings, ex boyfriends/girlfriends, etc.  But you must make it unique and have the number thirteen somehow affect their life or even change it!  This would also be a great opportunity to try out writing a dark piece of writing.
 
Today I want you to think about a time in your life when you felt the best that you ever had.  Write about this time and use metaphors and similes to describe how you felt.  This will help you to work on the use of these two writing tools as well as help you learn to explain emotions better.  You can also, if you choose, write about a time in your life when you felt the worst that you ever had and do the same thing with the similes and and metaphors.
However, do not write these pieces from first person, write it in third.  
Extra Challenge: Write two pieces of the same writing, one in third person and one in first.

Challenge yourself!
 
For today's challenge I want you to write a fan fiction.  Now, I must say that I am not a fan of fan fictions because they don't particularly take imagination, but this time i want you to write a fan fiction about a fairy tale character and completely write about them in the opposite of their personality.  An example of this could be taking a fairy tale princess and turning them into a rebel, or completely changing their story.  This is a good challenge if you are stuck on what or who to write about because you will be expanding 
 
For today's challenge I want you to write a story based around someone who is in a position where they don't want to be, but are stuck for one reason or another.  This is a very vague challenge so the possibilities are endless!  The purpose of this challenge is to become further acquainted with how to create character purpose and drive.  Be sure to fully emphasize as to why your character doesn't want to be in the position that they are in and why they are stuck in the first place.  This is also a good opportunity to create character relationship between two characters.

This is a great opportunity to practice backstory for your characters!

One example of this is when Meg in "Hercules" is on Hates side but she is stuck in that position and is really for Hercules.  

Get writing and break out that creativity!
 
Today for your writing challenge I want you to write a letter to someone who has left your life but who you didn't particularly get the chance to say goodbye to or have closure with.  You can choose to mail this letter, keep it to yourself, rip it up, or burn it.  That is your choice, but this will give you a chance to let out hidden aggression while also getting used to pouring out feelings in writing.  If you have not yet had anyone leave your life and don't have a real circumstance to write this letter in, you should create a character who has had a person leave their life and write the letter from their point of view.  This will also help you greatly with character development.  
Go write!  
 
Welcome to the second week of the writing challenge!  Today's challenge will be based around...you!  I want you to do several things for this writing challenge.  First, I want you to write a paragraph about what kind of weather you feel like right now, may it be sunny, cloudy, foggy, etc.  Take this comparison as far as you can go!  This would also be a good time to practice poetry.  
The second part of this writing challenge is to write about yourself from the eyes of someone else.  You can write from the viewpoint of a lover, friend, acquaintance, stranger, any person who you want to, but you need to write about how that person would see you specifically.  I also want you to use a lot of details with this.  This is a great way to gain self confidence with yourself and get to know yourself better.  One option that would be helpful with this writing is to stare at yourself in the mirror for a prolonged period of time and get to know your physical presence better.  This will help you to further see how others view you physically, but I don't want you to just write about your physical aspects.  You should also write about your other characteristics as well.
The last part of this challenge will be for you to write a very short blurb with the first things that come to your mind when you think of yourself.  These things can be positive, negative, or any other type of thought, but you must write down what you think of yourself for a full minute and you cannot leave out any of your thoughts.  This will help you to see how you think of yourself without thinking for a very long time and it will help you to be better acquainted with your mindset.   
 
Today I want you to get a pen and a piece of paper and just before you start to write I want you to think of the first word or thought that comes into your head.  This will be the basis for your writing today.  Writing about the first thing that comes to your mind will help you to dig deeper into your subconscious and it can be very releasing.  Today's writing can be any desired length that you would like, but try to make it at least a page so that you can continue to exercise your writing skills.  Feel free to post your writing challenges in the comments section at any time as always!  I will read everything that is posted and at the end of each month I will make a shout out to the person who has written the most and really took the challenges to the next level!  Keep writing always!

 
Today I would like you to pick a random image from Google or another source and I want you to write a short story that explains or revolves around that picture.  This challenge will help you to connect visually with your writing and may even sprout new ideas for future, full length writing!  Have fun with this one and be as creative as you possibly can.  Finding a picture that normally only has one meaning and coming
