Writing is as much fun as it is challenging, and for most writers, no matter how good they are, a time comes when it is so hard to figure out where to start from.

At times like these, it is advisable to not panic or question your mettle as a writer. What you should do it to set a timer of 5 to 15 minutes and just keep writing until it stops. To use this method, you surely need a prompt which you’ll write on for those few nonstop writing minutes. So here are 7 imaginative narrative writing prompts that will help you put an end to any writing block and get you back in the game.

What happens next?
