Premonition


A premonition is a strong feeling that something is about to happen, especially something unpleasant, though not always unpleasant. It can come in a dream, be based on a vision, or even a feeling. It can even come about through an ability to somehow see the future...or perhaps the past.

Today's writing prompt


Develop a scene based on a premonition. 

Questions to consider if you need help getting started.

  • What does your character see?How do they see it?
  • Based on what they see, what don't they see or understand?
  • Can they hear sounds related to the premonition? (This can add an element of interest, a clue intended to be misleading or distracting, or it could work as a harbinger.)
  • Do they change the way the live based on what they see?Or does it create a mystery in their mind that must be solved?
  • How does it change their life?
  • How is the premonition fulfilled?
  • Or was it?

Writing challenge


Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to take your premonition scene and incorporate a beginning, middle and end.

For the visually creative, I've added this visual prompt for your muse to use as a springboard. Have fun. Write on.
