5 Writing Prompts For Your Next 5 Days Of Writing

With templates to make it effortless

At 24, I graduated from Columbia College Chicago with a degree in fiction writing, and I was determined to make writing a full-time career.

I asked myself where I should begin writing on the internet. And that’s when I discovered Quora.

• Quora is a massive social platform for writers online (300M+ users)
• Questions on Quora serve as endless writing prompts
• Readers asking questions = “Write this and I’ll read it”

It’s a Holy Grail for writers.

I answered one question every single day, for a year straight.

• Within 3 months, my first Quora answer went viral, accumulating over 100,000 views.
• The next month, I landed on the front page of Reddit, accumulating over 1M views.
• By the 6-month mark, over a dozen of my Quora answers had been republished in Inc Magazine, TIME, Forbes, Fortune, Business Insider, and many more.
• By the 9-month mark, I had accumulated several million views and had become the fastest user ever to go from new account to Top Writer.

After 1 year of writing online every single day, I had effectively become one of the most-read writers on all of Quora.

The lesson?
