The Prompt

Welcome, young explorers, to an out-of-this-world writing adventure! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to create a vivid description of your ultimate dream trip to a distant planet.

Close your eyes and let your imagination soar far beyond our galaxy. Where are you going? Is it a planet made of jelly, a world where the trees sing, or a place with purple oceans and three suns?

Think about:

  • Your Journey: How do you get there? Do you blast off in a super-speedy spaceship, or perhaps use a magical star-gate?
  • The Planet Itself: What does it look like, smell like, and even feel like? Are there strange creatures, sparkling crystals, or bizarre weather?
  • Your Adventure: What incredible things do you do? Do you explore ancient ruins, race across alien landscapes, or make friends with a friendly space creature?
  • Your Feelings: How do you feel during this amazing journey? Excited, a little bit scared, completely amazed?

Your job is to paint a picture with words, so your reader feels like they are right there with you, experiencing every moment of your incredible planetary adventure!

💡 Writing Tips

  • Imagine your planet: What colour is the sky? What do the plants look like? What sounds can you hear?

  • Who are you with? Are you alone, with friends, or a robot?

  • How do you get there? A super-fast rocket or a teleportation device?

  • What amazing thing do you discover? A glowing river, a talking alien, or a floating city?

  • Use exciting words to describe what you see, hear, smell, and feel.
