Creative writing prompts: Attic. In the attic of your grandmother's house, you find a box labeled with your name. What’s inside? Do you tell anyone else about it or keep it a secret? Is it surprising, shocking, heart-warming, disturbing? Does it change your opinion about your grandmother or someone else in the family? Alternate: Invention. Create something outrageously wacky that makes life so much more fun! Let your imagination run wild!
