64 Random Journal Prompts

As a writer, I know how fun answering some random journal prompts can be, so I decided to supply some of my favorites. When I say random, I mean these range from travel, career, writing, romanticizing life, college, relationships, and creativity; some of my favorite topics. The list is completely randomized and out of order, and you of course do not need to answer every single one. However, for whatever ones you do decide to answer, I would love to hear what you have written down. If you feel like sharing with me, just check out my contact page on my website, goldenhournotes.com. You can email me from there! And as for the pictures, those are just some fun fall pictures to add beauty to the page; it is my favorite season after all!
