Is it a blog tag? Is it a photo challenge? Is it just a handy collection of Wyrd and Wonderful prompts? It’s up to you! We’ve come up with a prompt for every day through May – use them wisely. Or frivolously. Frivolity is good.
Last year, Wyrd and Wonder had a photo challenge: a prompt each day to inspire your fantasy bookstagramming. This year, the prompts are back (yes, they’re different prompts, what do you take us for?) and we’re looking forward to seeing what you do with them.
You could:
- share a photo each day on Instagram or Litsy;
- pick a prompt as inspiration for some form of post (…or pick multiple and write several posts. Heck, post every day if you’re really keen);
- pick any ten prompts and make it a blog tag
…or come up with a new and exciting twist on how to use them!
