#4: New Year, Same Vibes
Afrofuturism + goal-setting methods + more
Hey you!
2021 still has that new car smell--and I’m here for it.
Don’t let anybody try to scam you out of the positivity a new year often brings. After the year we’ve had, we deserve it and then some. Make every day a celebration! You made it another year--that’s huge!
I wish you life, love, laughter, success, and joy in the new year.

Writing Prompts:
Write a scene about a character trying to complete all of their new year’s resolutions in one day.
Your character is being forced to go ice skating--but they’re deathly afraid of it. Write about the event that began their fear.
Lost in the woods, your character has to spend the night at a stranger’s house. Document their night.
