Annabelle Blogs Writing Prompts. A Good Thing or a Cautionary Tale?

If you’ve read my blogs, you’ll understand the title of this
one and why I chose to write it. Let’s begin by breaking down how a traditional
cautionary tale is supposed to be structured and its purpose.

As the two words—cautionary tale, imply, it is an ask for you to stop, and proceed with caution. There may be danger ahead. There are three parts of the tale. The first would be to state the danger. In this case—writing prompts are dangerous. The next would be the narrative where you go forward anyway and disregard the warning. The last part of the tale would be to explain what happened to the violator who ignored the warning. Because something bad will happen to them.

Consider part one accomplished. I have been warned of the
danger. I’m going to ignore this and carry on.

Once upon a time there was a blogger. Let’s tip-toe upon the scene and see what she’s writing. Shhhhh. Annabelle is so naive and clueless. 

I look at writing prompts for inspirational ideas for things to write about. You never know where the big ideas are going to come from.
