Prompted, Prodded, Published is a hybrid nonfiction/fiction book divided into two parts.

It was honored with 2nd place in its category at The Author Zone book awards, 2017.

The first section is a writing book about prompts: who needs them, what they are, when they are most beneficial, where to find them, why they are necessary, and how to use them. It also includes a chapter of prompts to exercise writing skills.

The second section is an anthology of 76 examples of how different writers used the thirty prompts. Each chapter begins with the prompt and an introduction followed by the stories. The first part of the book will prompt you to be more creative in your writing. The second part will prompt a reaction from all of your emotions.
