Salutations! Welcome back to the collection of mini-episodes that we’re creating in-between our main series (which is back again for eight new episodes later this year). In ‘A Very Prompt Chat’ we talk with fellow writers and prompteteers around the world and ask them to create and read a new piece of work for us (based on one of our previous prompts).

For this next episode, we’re talking with fellow podcaster ‘Davis Gilbert Jr’ who lives in Texas and whose own podcast is called ‘The Crossroads of Inspiration’. Davis describes himself as a harbinger of happiness. Wanting to bring a smile to the faces of those he meets and improve their day. His own life has been quite the journey, Having experienced things foreign to many people. From touring with Billy Idol to his family owning a decommissioned military base. Then losing everything. Allowing him to continue his journey from another unique perspective. Writing was a hobby that he meandered with until a conversation with the muse planted the seed which grew into ‘The Crossroads of Inspiration’ Podcast, where Davies and his guest start at the same point and then take a creative journey and see where they end up.

You can find out more about the show at: crossroadsofinspiration.com

In this episode Davis is using the prompt, “Describe an Orange to Someone Who Has Never Seen One”

As well as the prompt response, we talk about how we find ideas, how to take chances, writing fan fiction and being positive in how you approach life.

Join us again next month for a new prompt and chat with another writer!

Hello you. Welcome to a brand new series of mini-episodes that we’re creating in-between our main series (which is back again for eight new episodes later this summer).

Her work has appeared on various platforms including in The Armenian Weekly, NYU's Minetta Review, Amazon, and on NPR.
