Daily writing prompt

If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

View all responses

The daily prompt sometimes asks silly questions, like what would I put on a freeway billboard. The occasion will never come up. They say, “don’t say never,” but I’m pretty sure I will never have to worry about it. It’s good, because I wouldn’t make up my mind on the message. Should I be grand and call for world peace, or should I be focused on my own goals and promote my book? Should I try to be funny and display a joke, or should be political and promote a point of view? Should I be practical and provide the route to the closest best “eats,” or should I be fun and layout the route to the nearest theme park. The opportunity to be visible is daunting for me. The list is long, those things on my mind I want to express. One billboard would not be enough. Give me the whole highway and a large supply of billboards. Perhaps, then I would fill them.
