Updated weekly, you can use our story starters provided by our lead and assistant writers. We post these on our Instagram account @thesparkwriters too, but will duplicate them here for those who are too young for Instagram or don’t use the app.
Don’t forget, you can submit any pieces that you write to our magazine. For details on how to do this, please see this page.
