PACT Prompts:
Your invitation to loosen your grip and let something unexpected happen.
Here, we share a craft-inspired writing prompts—created by members of the PACTDeskSet team or drawn from the creative obsessions, favorite exercises, and literary fixations we can’t stop thinking about. Some prompts lean surreal, some structural, some playful, some quietly unsettling. All are designed to move you out of habit and into discovery.
This week’s prompt comes from PACT Co-Manager Mike Itaya (@dirtbagwriting). Stay tuned for Pub Drawl—Mike’s monthly roundup of Pac U alumni news, events, and literary happenings on the PACT Substack.
Head over to our Instagram for the Prompt!
