Your source for monthly themed prompt-challenges meant for both writers and visual artists. Sideblog to @icannotreadcursive

Welcome to the Prompt Foundry!

This month's prompt list is: Adversary April Next month's prompt list is: Juxtaposition July

Turns out I enjoy making prompt lists, and I'm pretty good at it, too, so I've started this blog to centralize that for everyone's convenience.

I plan to have themed prompt lists up monthly, with prompts for each day. They will be tagged "prompt list" and the current one will be linked in this pinned post each month.

My prompts are meant to be usable for both writers and visual artists and welcome both original work and fanwork (unless otherwise specified by a given theme). If you do some other kind of art—music, fiber art, soapmaking, dance—and can see a way to use these prompts as well, you are more than welcome to do so!

I encourage you, dear fellow creatives, to have a go at any prompts that strike your fancy, without worrying about committing to the whole month if that's more than you can manage right now. Goodness knows I won't be able to fill all my own prompts. Skip days, start late, do prompts from August in January, whatever works for you. I want this to be fun!

If you post your prompt responses, please tag me @thepromptfoundry or @icannotreadcursive and I'll reblog your work here!
