Prompt Generation 1 Autumn — Jennifer DiMarco

A Year of Short Stories from Nine Radically Diverse AuthorsBlue 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. Prompt Autumn is a time capsule of their stories-and the prompts that inspired them-for the months of September, October, and November. 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 The Prompt Guidebook for all hundred and eight stories plus extensive interviews with each author and twelve bonus stories-one written by each author-from 2020.
