Takhayyal Writing Prompts


Takhayyal is the name of the picture-prompt series I've started in February 2015. It's Arabic for 'imagine.'

It's a virtual place for writers of all ages, races, beliefs, backgrounds, everywhere. Whatever you write, Takhayyal is a place for YOU! 

It's a place to spark inspiration, whether you write poetry, flash fiction, short stories, prose; the motto is "You name it and write it." 

How does Takhayyal work?

Every month I will post an image that you can use as a source of inspiration. Once you have something written down, you can either include it in the comments or post it on your blog and include the link in the comments. 

All comments will receive comments (as long as they are in English or Arabic).

This page is updated monthly to feature the latest prompt. Feel free to go through any of the previous prompts for inspiration :) 


Note: Takhayyal began as a weekly prompt then once every 2 weeks and now it's a monthly writing prompt.



  

Pictures will range from random stuff I find online, to artwork sent by fans, friends, or anyone interested in having their work featured for ONE MONTH



Interested in getting your artwork featured for a month? Get in touch via email.
