While Yellow Pencils is on summer vacation, I thought it would be fun to leave you with writing prompts about...pencils!
Remember, take your notebook and pencil (or pen or tablet or laptop) wherever you go this summer. You never know when a brilliant idea will strike.
When you have a quiet moment with your notebook, try one of these prompts about our favorite writing instrument--the modest pencil.
Happy writing until Yellow Pencils returns July 29th!
- The dull, gray pencil was so jealous of the shiny, blue pen, he couldn't see straight.
- The pencil was headless when her eraser fell off.
- Mr. Percival Pencil was the spiffiest guy in the desk drawer.
- The cat rolled the pencil under the sofa, hoping it would stab the mouse.
- The pencil had six younger brothers, making it very crowded in the pencil case.
- All her life, the yellow pencil had longed to write a famous novel--but she didn't think she'd be writing it in jail.
Happy penciling!
