What do you think of when you think of something caught by a camera lens? A TV interview? A crime caught on a security camera? An investigator or spy’s clandestine photos? A selfie at a party?
Cameras often catch us at our best or worst moments and there are so many stories we can find around them, both good and bad. Try finding something unique to do with them in your writing.
Story Prompt: June 1, 2026
Write a story about something caught on camera
This could be video or photographs, intentional or accidental, beneficial or harmful. That part is up to you.
If you write a story for this prompt, send me a link to your story on your own site, either in the comments or at info@greenwalledtreehouse.com. You can also submit your story here for a chance to have it published on the site next week.
Have a great week!

Hmm. This is an interesting set-up. I just saw a wanted poster of a guy accosting a woman on the subway. He wore a gray hoodie and black pants. His face was turned in profile. Funny this is your storyline this week.

Yeah, it’s scary what people do with cameras these days, although there is a positive side to them as well.
