Daily Prompts Return to The Daily Post!

Y’all were pretty clear when you took our survey last month: you miss the daily writing prompts we used to publish. Well, be careful what you wish for: daily prompts are coming back!

Starting today, The Daily Post will feature a new prompt every weekday. The prompts are meant to jump-start posts on your own blogs on days when you need a little boost, so we’re going to close comments on them—if you’ve got something to say, post something! (Comments are open on this post, if you’ve got feedback for us.) If you publish a post based on a prompt, feel free to use the postaday or postaweek tag to make it easy for other Daily Posters to find.

We want you to get involved in coming up with ideas and questions as well as answering them–head up to the “Submit a Topic” link in the menu and pick “Submit a Prompt” to make a suggestion. If we use yours, we’ll credit you. (And we expect a post out of you!)

Let’s dive right in! Here’s your prompt for today:

Write about the most precious thing you’ve ever lost.
