Prompt Generation 1 Guidebook

By Jennifer Dimarco and Lauren Patzer

A Year of Short Stories from Nine Radically Different Authors

Blue Forge Press selected nine authors and sent them writing prompts every month for a year. Despite their vast and varied differences in experience, style, ideology, class, politics, race, gender, sexuality, and religion, the authors all gave a year of their creative lives to craft their best work over the course of 2019. The resulting hundred and eight stories were compiled into four volumes: Prompt Winter, Prompt Spring, Prompt Summer and Prompt Autumn. This fifth volume, the Prompt Generation 1 Guidebook, provides in-depth interviews with each author plus nine bonus stories written in 2020.

Whether brand new and just beginning their writing careers or established veterans in the industry, rarely have more diverse authors come together to create a body of work so inclusive and enlightening. Blue Forge Press used a light editorial hand to allow the writers' voices to be heard in their original state: Undiluted, unaltered, and raw.

Look for Prompt Winter, Prompt Spring, Prompt Summer, and Prompt Autumn for all hundred and eight stories plus extensive interviews with each author and twelve bonus stories-one written by each author-from 2020.
