Accepting Submissions: {COLD BLOODED} Writing Prompt

Each week, we issue a writing prompt to our own staff, guest contributors, and readers like you. We welcome guest submissions, so if you’re interested in being featured or regularly contributing to the site, email your responses to kelaine.conochan [at] thepromptmag.com.

Now that the weather is starting to warm up, we’re getting a little more active and activated. Our blood is pumping. We’re moving. Making progressssssssssss.

But being cold blooded isn’t just for reptiles.

It’s also for murders. And high school mean girls. And players who are locked in to win that buzzer beater, smash that walk-off homer, or bury a last-second header in the back of the net.

It isn’t all good, and it isn’t all bad. And there are so many ways to be cold blooded, that we thought it would be an amazing writing prompt. If you feel inspired, why not show us what you got?
