This year for Days of Potter, we have prepared a selection of EEFD-style writing prompts to spark your creativity as a writer, whether you prefer to produce poetry, a series of ficlets, a screenplay or drama, or any other form!
To participate, select a quill from the list provided below and complete the prompts that are tied to it (if you pick up the Self-Inking Quill, you can mix and match any five prompts that inspire you most from the other lists). Each prompt must be present somewhere in your writing; all could appear in a single post, or they can be spread out across multiple entries.
