A word prompt to get your creativity flowing this weekend. How you use the prompt is up to you. Write a piece of flash fiction, a poem, a chapter for your novel…anything you like. Or take the challenge below – there are no prizes – it’s not a competition but rather a fun writing exercise. If you want to share what you come up with, please leave a link to it in the comments.
Word Prompt
Haphazard
Challenge
The challenge is simple: each week you will be given an exact number of words you can use to write a poem or piece of prose. You can use any format or style you like; go wherever your inspiration takes you. The only rules are these:
- your poem / prose must contain this week’s word. The word does not have to count towards the exact word count total – it can be in the title, or the first letters of the lines of a poem can spell it out – you can be as creative as you want as long as it’s there somewhere.
- the length of your poem / prose must match the number of words stated in this week’s challenge. No more. No less.
Can’t wait to read what you have come up with!

Hey Sammi, Namaste 🙂
The weekend’s here it’s Saturday,
No work this day but chance to play,
Hoping all is well in every way,
Here’s my scribble for today.
~ Haphazard ~ By ~ Dewin Nefol ~
~
Haphazard life rife with strife, but yet,
By way of hap or fine fortune,
Hazards haven’t happened at all.
~*~
Have a great week.
Namaste 🙂

Bits and pieces scattered around in a haphazard manner are junk. The same pieces arranged in order is Art.

Dear sixteen-year-old.
If today your driving is haphazard at best,
then heed my advice, don’t go for your test.
