Great app tool for beginner &professional writers of all ages & genres. Would love to be able to add add'l or favorite prompts of my own in a personal folder or library; a way to submit prompts to developers to include in future updates. Links to author & writer networking sites would be an asset. I have been looking into creating an app that has all this &more. I love open source software/downloads where people can pull their resources together. A must have for Writer's block! A+++ ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love this app, they have so many interesting and new (not played out) prompts. Everyday I go down the list and write a new poem (obviously) based on their prompts. Sometimes you really want to write but you dont have any fresh new subjects, well this app is the fixer to that problem. I wrote some pretty good poems and short stories from these prompts.

How is this app even possible!!! I am kind of bummed I actually own some of these books when I can access them here. There is no "about this app" that will clue me in on whether authors are getting royalties for their books being here. Incidentally, I would love the option to just buy the app and get rid of ads.
