31 Days Of Pets

There's nothing like a pet to warm your heart or lay waste to your enemies! From loyal labradors to less terrestrial critters, there's something about having an animal sidekick that makes a Fictive pick up the wordcount. So swing by the pound (or the summoning circle), gas up the spaceship, and get ready to play some interstellar fetch! This eBook contains 31 prose prompts, which are one or more sentences of story. This type of prompt is meant to invoke a setting, emotion, or plot idea. They can be used in multiple ways and I've included examples of those at the end of the book. The prompts are set in a variety of genres including fantasy and science fiction, but many are not genre-specific. If you're not familiar with my style of prompts, please hop over to my website and check out the Saturday Story Prompts category. This eBook contains a mix of Saturday Story Prompts previously posted to the blog as well as prompts that will be posted in the future. Prompts are not divided into categories and have been mixed to make sure themes and genres are not clumped together. The prompts are meant to be read in this random order to shake up your muses and get them hopping around between wildly different ideas!

Sheep knows this can’t be right. After all, she’s the pro! So Sheep goes off to get everything Sheep Dog needs to get the job done, but each time she goes, something almost happens to Sheep… And it's Sheep Dog who saves the day! For fans of Goodnight Already! by Jory John, You Will Be My Friend! by Peter Brown, and Little Blue Truck by Alice Schertle, this hilarious and tender friendship story proves that even the best watchers must look out for one another.
