Free Creative Writing Prompts #77: Valentine's Day

You'll love these free creative writing prompts as much as you love February 14th, the wonderful holiday known as Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day can be the most amazing holiday in the world if you're on good terms with your significant other, the most awkward holiday ever if you're on bad terms with your significant other and can be downright excruciating if you're between significant others. There is no question that this holiday has become extremely consumer-driven as it allows local and chain stores to push pink and red memorabilia as soon as the new year begins. Deep down, however, the holiday can lead to a lot of love and togetherness for many people as they spend their time eating brunch.

1. What is the most memorable Valentine's Day you've ever experienced? Describe the day from beginning to end, including what you felt, what you did and who you were with. Remember, "memorable" does not mean it was necessarily good or bad, it just means that it is deeply imbedded in your mind!

4. The early origins of Valentine's Day had nothing to do with romantic love and the holiday didn't change to include love until the times of Geoffrey Chaucer and courtly love.

Why have they come now and what is the lesson they might want to instruct you in? Will you learn it or continue to go on about love as you always had?

7. As an arrow goes whizzing by your face, you drive to the ground and hear what seems like a toddler laughing. It's Cupid! Not only is this baby of love real, but he wants to grab a bite to eat with you to talk about love. What do you and Cupid talk about and what is he like in real life?

8. You have been tasked with creating the ultimate Valentine's Day playlist for a big holiday dance at a local group you belong to. What are some of the biggest hits about love you add to the list? What are the reactions like to your loving music selection?
