Dare to Make Your Writing Real.
Bring Your Storytelling to Life – and Share it With Us!
Join To Live & Write in Practice
This is how it works:
TEN FRESH PROMPTS!
I drop a fresh prompt in our FB group every three days.
You respond by writing up to 500 words in any genre – fiction, non-fiction, poetry, etc. Song lyrics count!
You publish your piece on your blog or Substack and share the link in the group.

3-DAY DEADLINES
You get three days to write your piece, for the most part; when the month runs out, so does your time. This means that a prompt that drops on February 28 has a 1-day deadline (2 in a leap year) and October has an extra prompt with a scary 24-hour deadline!

POSITIVE FEEDBACK
In order to play Flash Lit with us and enjoy the privilege of sharing your work with a supportive audience, you must return the favor by reading Flash Lit by other writers and providing them with positive feedback as well.
It’s only fair.

A 7-YEAR TRADITION
We started this fun, fast-paced storytelling tradition in 2017. It’s been a rewarding way for many members to build their blogs, their short piece portfolios, and their bank of evidence that they are, indeed, real writers.
Embrace the muse! Show her some love.

Prompts provided exclusively for members of To Live & Write in Practice.
