Review: Year-round Entertainment
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 01 24, 2014
This is more than a prompt book for writers; it can be used to start conversations at a party, keep kids entertained answering questions while on a long road trip, or to get the creative juices flowing for artists. The writing prompts aren’t run of the mill either. There are lots of interesting facts, and a few obscure ones, like how an 1816 volcanic eruption caused snow and cold weather all summer, essentially eliminating summer that year. There are funny ones, like, toe wrestling and tomato throwing festivals. Each prompt includes multiple questions to get you thinking and to draw out more than a short answer. The prompts are divided into seasons of the year so you can have year-round entertainment. While this is targeted at younger writers, it's a good resource for anyone who needs inspiration for creativity.Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book for review.
