The very popular Writing Prompts for December 15 - 21 are now posted online here. Enjoy!

Two of our favorite prompts from the coming week's collection are:

Hector Hugh Munro, who wrote amusing stories under the pen name Saki and was born in 1870, once wrote, “In baiting a mousetrap with cheese, always leave room for the mouse.” What do you think he meant by that?

In 1941, jazz and blues singer Lena Horne released her first hit song, “Stormy Weather.” She had a long and very successful career, and worked hard to create new opportunities for black and women singers. Many of her songs were very sexy, but she once said, “I just sing those songs, I don’t live them.” What do you think she meant by that?
