History That Never Was

It’s time for the December 2025 writing prompts, and this month, I’m doing a little something different!

The first image and first column of words are a throwback to 2017, which was the first time I did December writing prompts on this blog! This is a list that was designed for six-word stories, but you don’t have to limit yourself to six words … especially since I’m giving you two more words for each day of the month!

The second image and second column of words are the first December writing prompts that I came up with on my own, complete with “fancy” graphics for each month.

There’s a bit of overlap between those first two columns, but there’s only one word that appears on both in the exact same form, so I’ve put an asterisk on that one.

The third column this month is completely random words. Because the first two columns are pretty winter-holiday focused, I thought having some really random words would help you find ways to use the winter-holiday words without winding up with a bunch of themed pieces. Some of the combinations are already sparking plenty of ideas for me!

Check back on the last Friday of each month (or occasionally the first day of a new month, when that falls on a Friday) for my History That Never Was writing prompts!
