Happy April Fools’ Day!

I post writing prompts here on Fridays.  Most will work for fiction writers and memoirists and for both kids and adults.  To surprise yourself, when you are ready to commit to writing, scroll down past the photo for a writing prompt!

Fiction writers:

Write a story about an April Fool’s joke that goes terribly wrong.

Memoir writers:

What do you remember about April Fool’s Day from your childhood?  Or from when your children were young?  Were you ever embarrassed by a trick that didn’t work out right?  Or if you have no April Fool’s Day memories, write about an embarrassing memory of another kind.

DID YOU DO IT?

I’d love to know.  Tell me in a comment or share an excerpt from what you wrote.
