Muse Ariadne is a low-pressure digital writing club which posts a new prompt each week. I have a lot of fun trying to write responses to them, particularly when they lead me off my usual tracks.
This page collects my prompt fills. They are ordered by the date the prompt was originally posted, but I generally fail to keep up with the club and more often than not write my prompts out of order, well after the date or not at all. For a chronological list, see the sitemap.
