Table for One

Write a story where the protagonist spends the holidays alone and creates a novel and meaningful way to celebrate.

Solitude during the holidays can be daunting but sometimes it can give birth to a deep self-reflective period. Your protagonist could be anyone from a young adult to an elderly person. Write about how they cope and transform this time into a celebration of self-love and understanding, creating a new holiday tradition all their own. This writing prompt explores themes of loneliness, resilience, and reinvention.
