** This page will aid students enrolled in my Creative Writing class at Northampton Community College in Monroe County. Students may find some of the lesson plans, writing prompts, and other activities on this page valuable. **  __**INSPIRATION**__ For many people, the most difficult part of the writing process is getting started. One way to nullify this problem is by using writing prompts. Below is a link to a website which has 329 writing prompts: [|creative writing prompts]

Another great way to generate story ideas is by experimenting with point of view.
 * Think** of an argument you have had where you were absolutely convinced you were in the right. Then, write a letter to yourself from the person you were arguing with explaining how they were right and you were wrong.
 * Think** of a time you observed a stranger doing something which did not make any sense to you. Now, write a short story from their point of view explaining the events leading up to them doing this thing you observed.
