About

Pick-A-Prompt! provides an online version of drawing a writing prompt in an online setting.

Problem Statement

Many writers' groups (48-Film Festival, 24-Hour Play Festival, WriteClub to name a few) have writer's draw prompts from a hat as a means to assign unique writing topics to each writer.

As writers' groups are moving to remote digital forums, they need the ability to "draw" a writing prompt in an online setting.

Stakeholders

Business Owners: Theatres, Writers’ Groups

Users: Playwrights

Beta Customer

Lionheart Theatre in Norcross, GA, has asked me to produce a 10-minute play festival for October 2020.

High-level Approach
