Emergency Writing Prompt

Everyone at one time or another has been involved in an emergency.

Recently I found myself in a medical emergency situation. Although I am doing much better now, I realized in contemplation that the rollercoaster of events and emotions would make for great scenes in fiction.

Sometimes you just can’t make these things up as well as true life can hurl them at you. So let a real emergency inspire your writing prompt today.

(Not all emergencies are medical so really branch out creatively, and feel free to make one up if you’d rather)

For yourself, your character, or knowledge of someone else’s emergency, write for 15 minutes discribing the emotions felt and ensuing actions at the moment the emergency is realized as such.

Please feel free to share some of your writing prompt here with the group. We’d love to read it!
