Hello! I’m Emily Chenoweth, the author, co-author, or ghostwriter of more than 25 novels. I’ve also been a teacher, a magazine editor, an advertising agency proofreader, and a bartender at a grill-your-own steakhouse.

On Fridays I send out a free weekly writing prompt that’s designed to spark your creativity and to clarify, expand, and/or challenge your thinking about whatever project you’re currently working on, be it prose or poetry, fiction or memoir. If you’re not already writing something, these prompts will help you start.
