Communications
Other, Weekly Prompts, Writing Prompts - - Posted on January, 11 at 12:00 pm
No matter how technical we get, we as a species still need to connect to each other on a more intimate level. Whether on the phone, one the Web, or through a well-written letter. We need to know that there are others out there who love us and want to be loved by us. If you can find the strength to smile, you’ll never be truly alone.
1.) Write a story about a little disabled girl who sends joy to total strangers in the folds of a letter.
2.) Invent a machine that allows you to talk to anyone, from any time in history or the future.
3.) Do a report on Alexander Graham Bell and how he created the first telephone.
4.) If you were to meet someone from another planet, how would you communicate with them?
5.) Do some research and discuss some of the stranger ways in which people have tried to communicate with one another.
6.) What new communication devices will be available in the next 20 years?
7.) What is your least favorite way of communicating with other people?
8.) Create a machine that allows you to communicate with animals. Use as many details as possible.
9.) Write a story from the POV of a telephone operator.
10.) Interview any fictional character. This can be a cartoon character or a literary character. You can also use TV and/or movie characters.
