An introduction to The Prompted Podcast
Welcome to Prompted! The podcast where we unlock creativity—one writing prompt at a time.
My name is Eric, and if you love exploring new ideas, pushing your writing in unexpected directions, or just need a little creative spark, you’re in the right place.
What to Expect
- New episodes every Monday
- My original poetry and flash fiction inspired by various writing prompts
- Guest interviews with other writers/authors, who share their responses to the episode-specific writing prompt
- A writing prompt for our listening audience at the end of each episode, with random submissions featured in the next episode
More Details
Each episode, I’ll be sharing poetry and flash fiction I’ve written over the last week or so, inspired by writing prompts. Then, at the end of the episode, I’ll give you a prompt to explore on your own. If you take on the challenge, you can share your response using the hashtag #PromptedPodcast on the Bluesky platform — or visit our website to submit your response. I’ll feature a few random submissions in the next episode!
One thing that’s been really exciting for me is exploring how technology can enhance my creative process. For example, I’ve been experimenting with an AI-powered music tool called Suno AI.
In some episodes, I will share a song that I’ve created using this tool – but here’s the twist: it all starts with one of my original poems!
Now, I’m not trying to replace professional musicians or musicianship – instead, I see this as a way to bring my words to life in a new and creative way. At least, until connect with real musicians in real life.
An Invite to Writers/Authors
I’d like to invite writers who enjoy word prompts to be a guest on the show! As a guest, you’ll receive a prompt before we record—one that both you and I will write for. Then, during our interview, we’ll both share our responses and dive a little bit into our creative process for those writing prompts. If that sounds like fun, send me a DM on our Bluesky account @thepromptedpodcast.org, or reach out through our website (thepromptedpodcast.org) for more information.
Hey Eric! Hope all is well. Just wanted to check in and see how it was hanging! lol
Take care💫
