April Photo Prompt

Happy Spring! This month's photo is courtesy of Carros de Foc and is entitled "La Crida." Cool no? Happy writing!

Happy New Year! Picture for January

Happy New Year! You may still be hibernating after NYE or not ready to start saying 2014 yet. We're with you. We completely understand. But, new year, new month, new photo prompt!

Maybe you have a resolution to write more? If so, this would be a prime opportunity to do so. This month's photo is from Kostas Kitsos (Thanks, Kostas!). And you can find more of his work (in Greece) at his website: http://tzibis.blogspot.com/.

Hope this picture inspires you for whatever medium you choose.

October's Picture

 

Happy Fall! Happy pre-holidays and in October...Happy Halloween! This photo is aptly called "Into the Fog," from Jim Crossley so maybe it'll inspire spooky, creepy stuff or maybe some elegiac, romance. Who knows? 

Happy writing!

July Picture Prompt

Summer time! Happy almost U.S. Independence Day and official summer and hopefully lots of relaxing and so on.

New month, new picture. You know how it goes. And here's our latest. The photographer's name is Hector Lion and this was from iStockphotos. You can view Hector's portfolio here.

Hope this gets some synapses electrified for some great fiction.

Wishing you cool and sunny days!

June Picture!

This month's picture was chosen by Krystalyn and has a cool feel with the black and white and shadows and fuzzies, no?

It's by Emilian Robert Vicol, and you can see his other work on Flickr.

Hope this garner's some inspiration and do check back on Fridays to see what has sparked our creative flow.

And as always we do hope you'll join in the fun and perhaps submit something based on this image for us to post. We'd be honored, truly!

More giveaways to come and the winners will be notified for the Krystalyn prize pack on Monday.

April's Picture!

Happy (official) Spring! At least I hope it is in your neck of the woods. With a new month and season Fiction Femme Fatale brings you a new picture prompt. This one is from the lovely and talented photographer Gillian Woods.

I stumbled upon Gillian's photography on Facebook and fell in love. I also really enjoyed that she shared the process by showing before and after photos to see how a compilation of images became something so much edgier.

Thanks so much to Gillian for allowing us to use one of her pictures as inspiration.

Check out Gillian's (aka GillyFace Photos) Facebook page (and Like it!) as well as her Flickr page. You'll be ohing and ahing all over the place.

Happy Writing!

Happy New Year! Here's a Brand New Pic Prompt.

January, winter, snow... done, done, done. I have a certain affinity for January since it's my birth month but also because it is the start of a new year. So let's start it off with a bang, shall we?

I want to thank Helen Warner for allowing us to post one of her beautiful photos. She's a master at Gothic-style imagery and I loved her entire portfolio. Definitely check out Helen's Tumblr & Facebook pages. Hope this sparks some New Year's creativity!

Happy writing all!
