Writing Prompt: A Schedule
Thursday, January 24th, 2008
I am working out a schedule for what I need to get done before January ends, so I decided that was as good a writing prompt as any for today. Your character might be checking their day’s schedule, scheduling an appointment for something or looking over the schedule for when the next city bus will be stopping at the bus stop they are at.
Maybe they are checking the schedule book for the victim to see who the deceased last had an appointment with before they were murdered? Or they could be checking the schedule on a shipment of stuff for a remote colony trying to establish a foothold on an alien world? Checking the scheduled stops of an armored car they want to hijack?
There are a lot of different ways to work a schedule into your story, and it can even suggest a myriad of subplot ideas, so get to writing and have some fun.
