The Imaginative Storm Community
Find inspiration, build momentum
The Imaginative Storm Community
Welcoming. Supportive. Global.
Writing is a quiet act of rebellion. To sit down and create something from nothing—truthfully, freely—takes courage. Even now, you might wonder: Can I do this? Does it matter?
That’s why the Imaginative Storm writing community exists—a global hub for creative writing sessions, imaginative writing prompts, and connection. Not to critique, but to encourage. Not to perfect, but to unleash.
This is a supportive writing environment where your imagination can move—wild and unfiltered—and where you remember: you’re here to create. You’ll find others here who will help you build that imaginative fire.
So far, Imaginative Storm has reached 20 countries on 6 continents—and counting!
Prompt of the Week
Write freely. Surprise yourself. No experience needed.
The Imaginative Storm Writing Prompt of the Week isn’t a class—it’s a creative ignition. A free, live writing session on Zoom where writers at all levels gather for an exciting hour of imaginative writing practice.
Each week, you’ll receive a creative writing prompt—an image or video that stirs something unexpected. You’ll generate a word list, share a phrase, and then write for 10 minutes straight. No rules. No pressure. Just raw ideas, honest language, and creative momentum.
Whether it becomes poetry, story, or surprise—it’s always yours. And if you stick around for the after-chat, you’ll leave with more than just words—you’ll feel part of a writing community that supports your creative ambition.
Free! No need to pre-register.
Bonus: Get 25% off Write What You Don’t Know audio course when you attend our Zoom
Thursday 3 pm PT / 6 pm ET
Saturday: 9 am PT / noon ET
