We’re hungry. Thirsty. And we want you to have a seat at the table.

No, we’re not writing a cookbook (although, that would be dope), but this week, we’re cooking up something spectacular. We’re hungry for some recipes. Maybe you’re serving up hotdish like a good Midwesterner, or perhaps you’re more of a revenge is best served cold guy. Maybe a recipe for your favorite side dish with a little side commentary. Or perhaps you spin this into a recipe for success, for disaster, for a happy life, for causing a scene.

This Week’s Writing Prompt: RECIPE

This week, we’re looking for new original pieces, using RECIPE as your prompt.

If you’ve got an inspired ideas about how to respond to this week’s prompt, send us your submission of 400-700 words. Write us anything that comes to mind when you think of RECIPE. It can be a personal essay, a poem, short story, script, or anything else original and fresh—including a recipe! Ironic or sincere, real or imagined—just make it worth our while and we’ll publish it, include it in our newsletter, and give you the chance to join the creative, talented staff writers here at The Prompt.
