One rule I'd delete — a ten-minute writing prompt

If you could delete one rule, which one — and what would happen next?

What a child is asked afterwards

One rule I'd delete

Is there a rule you wish didn't exist? Write why.

Everyone gets the same subject. What differs is the follow-up: one question for children, two for teens, three for adults. Only the children's wording is simplified.

Where people usually get stuck on this one

When you can't be honest

Write as if no one will read it. You can choose what to show after you finish.

When nothing comes to mind

Write down one thing that happened recently. It does not have to be a good story.

When you stall halfway

Explaining is what stalls you. Put down what you saw and what you heard instead.

Today's constraints on this prompt

Only words a child knows

One word that needs a dictionary is where reading stops.

Always say who did it

Not 'it was decided' but 'I decided'. Leave out the doer and the writing hides.

Add one sense

Writing through the body needs no explaining.
