Daily Writing Prompt

Start your day with a spark of creativity. This workflow delivers a new writing prompt each morning — rotating between fiction, memoir, poetry, and observation exercises — and keeps track of your writing streak.

Steps

1. Check what type of prompt was delivered last time (fiction, memoir, poetry, or observation) and rotate to the next type.
2. Generate a fresh, thoughtful prompt that's specific enough to be inspiring but open enough for personal interpretation.
3. Check the user's writing streak — how many consecutive days they've written something.
4. Present the prompt with the streak count and a bit of encouragement.
5. When the user writes their response (any length is fine), save it using your notes skill with the date and prompt type tagged.

Output Format

✍️ Daily Writing Prompt — Thursday, March 20
   Type: Memoir | Streak: 12 days 🔥

Today's Prompt:
Write about a meal that changed something for you. Maybe it was the
first time you tried something new, a conversation that happened over
dinner, or a meal you ate alone in a place far from home. Focus on
one sensory detail and let the memory unspool from there.

(Write as much or as little as you'd like. Even a few sentences count.)

Notes

• Rotate prompt types in order: fiction, memoir, poetry, observation. Then repeat.
• Any response counts toward the streak — even a single sentence. The goal is consistency, not perfection.
• Keep prompts accessible for all skill levels. Avoid jargon or literary terms.
• If the user misses a day, reset the streak gently without making them feel bad about it.
• Save all entries so the user can look back on their writing over time.
