If you are anything like me, sometimes the simple desire to be writing isn't enough. It sounds outlandish, but there are times that no matter all my good ideas or interesting thoughts...I just can't write--It's been known to happen.
And if that is the case than you have probably scoured the interwebs looking for topics and suggestions... oh? Not so much? Huh...guess it's just me, then. Anyway, in my desire to find journaling/blogging/thinking prompts I came across about 8,860,000 results, many of which were aimed at children. What's up with that? Only kids need help coming up with topics?!
This is a GREAT blog that provides a prompt on Saturday, lets you respond to it on Sunday, and YOU can link from it to your post for all their followers to read :) it is fantastic blog networking!

Anyway, here, for your enjoyment are the best of the bunch, in my eyes, anyway. Having shuffled through the different options I hope these sites will help you find some inspiration!

by far my favorite, this one not only provides prompts but a myriad of other nifty, fun, and useful journaling ideas!
this, while a little more aimed for kids, has some good jumping off points
scroll down to the "additional prompts" for some interesting ideas. If you're feeling daunted by the number of prompts, just skim down the list--if it catches your eye, it's gotta be worth a real look.
while this one is DEFINITELY aimed at young students, it has some great ideas--and remember you don't have to write from your perspective--make it more interesting and choose the viewpoint of someone who thinks completely (or partially) different from you!
with over 700 different prompts this site could be intimidating. however, there are some serious gems in there, from "what makes you feel safe?" to "who is one of the most interesting people you've met?"
this one is a little doofy, but being able to hover over the asterisk to see the prompt is a neat way to focus on one at a time :)
I like this one because of the "Prompt a Day" element :) If only I could make myself make the time!
This one is AWESOME because, like the first one, this is, essentially, a site devoted to writing :) Who could ever complain about that?
Do you have a favorite site to go to when you need a little help? Do you like these? Or are you doing fine without the interwebz help? =D
Oh! The update is that I have a new job :) and so my schedule is a little wonky right now!
