This month, I’ve got one list that’s decidedly winter themed, while the other two have fewer winter-specific prompts. Column 1 is Doodlewash’s January 2026 prompts.

I had two new pieces out in January 2023, a poem and a short story. The poem was “Embrace,” published in Star*Line. This is a short poem in what seems to be a very unofficial form, in which the first words for eight of the lines are pulled from the eight-word middle line. The poem name […]
