Maryland Voices

Dec. 2 Writing Prompt: Write about a memorable haircut or hairstyle you have had, given, or witnessed.

Each day, Maryland Voices offers a writing prompt to encourage you to expand your writing voice. While some prompts might motivate you to write in-depth pieces about your life story, others might challenge you to write in a creative way that pushes you outside of your comfort zone.

We recommend that you find a good journal, a nice pen that feels good in your grip, and a cozy place to write freely and uninhibitedly for at least 20 minutes. We promise you: the experience can be life-changing!

Want to share your response on social media? That’s fantastic! If you do, please tag us: #MDVoicesDailyPrompt. You can also submit your response (or a link to your work) by leaving a comment on this post!

Also, if you are a middle or high school student in the state of Maryland, please consider submitting your best creative nonfiction writing to Maryland Voices for consideration (but please do so before the March 1 deadline!). More details about submitting for publication can be found HERE.
