I did a Google search for writing prompt websites. It gave me this one among many:
http://www.scholastic.com/teachers/story-starters
You pick a category.
Scifi…obviously.
The site asks for your name.
Easy. I’m Barbara. Next!
Then, it asks what grade you are.
Clearly, I put I was in 4th to 6th grade, because mature.
Then, you get a pull a lever to make the prompt machine go.
Spin, you monster! Spin!
The prompt I was given? I thought you’d never ask!
The prompt goes like this:
Describe the personality traits of a radioactive translator who befriends a race of mutant rabbits.
You better believe I am currently 500 words into this!

Barbara Burgess is a writer which is apparent by the text in this box and the box above. She is best known for being a multi-genre/multi-writing voice author who throws caution to the wind when describing her writing career - "Oh, I write children's books, holiday romance, and sci-fi.
Why? What do you do? Just one thing?"
In addition to being a writer of all the things, she is the founder of Pilgrim Fowl Press and a writing facilitator bringing permission to write to the masses via Skillshare and Udemy.
The only social media she frequents is Instagram (@hellothisisbarbara). Her desert island movie is Stargate (the original with James Spader), and she has been taking daily mug shots of her morning coffee since before Instagram was even a thing.
