Journaling To Live & Write

Click on the button to find the latest randomly selected 2-word journaling prompt, as well as the entire collection of prompts from January 1 through today.

I have a 700-word master list that I draw from, as well as a travel tin full of words on small slips of paper for workshops and in-person events, and a pocket pack for when I’m on the road.

I post a fresh pair of words every day, first as an Instagram Reel  @bronwynemery.coach, then here a few times a week.

For today’s prompt today, find me on Instagram. 

Sit with these words for a minute to let thoughts, feelings, and memories come to you within the context of how these words affect each other.

The second word influences what you write about the first word, and vice versa.

You don’t need to follow my thought process or use my suggestions, but sometimes ideas from other people can help.

Open your journal or notebook and start writing, by hand, until the words are done with you, or you are done with them. The goal is to write three pages every day – or as consistently as possible. 

This is how you build a solid writing habit that will see you through life’s ups and downs as well as writing’s occasional blocks and creative challenges.

Variety is the spice of life and writing. These prompts are one-offs designed to shake things up for a day, a week, or however long you need them to give you something new and different to write about.
