"Marie Lightman's prompts were invaluable for me during Napowrimo 2017...I didn't have to turn to anyone else and wrote a poem a day with ease. Mostly from places I wouldn't have thought I had places. .. when the third book in my trilogy "Ghosts Treading Water @ is released..you will find some of them woven in.....and the couple of poems I've submitted to to poetry places...have been accepted already" Karen Little

"Marie's prompts are the best I've ever used. They are often surprising and sometimes challenging, and they've resulted in some of the best work I've ever written." Cathy Thomas-Bryant
"What makes Marie's prompts unique for me is the range of subject matter and the fact that she doesn't shy away from scientific subjects. I've long written poems with science content, so to come across prompts that feed into this is great. Sometimes, the prompt itself sets off related thoughts which are just as useful as the original text. Marie's Diamond Planet prompt was a precursor to a poem I wrote about Europa, one of Jupiter's moons". Simon Williams
"Marie Lightman's poetry prompts are an invaluable resource. My poetry pamphlet Constellations was a direct result of one of Marie's prompts, on Classic myths linked to the signs of the Zodiac." Susan Castillo
"Marie Lightman’s series of prompts are an invaluable resource for writers at all levels. Each prompt is so well researched across a broad band of subjects including mythology and legend, scientific phenomena, human behaviour and the natural world. Writing activities are staged to allow for warm ups and the imagination to expand into unexpected places. I found the experience to be a journey of surprise and thrills resulting in poems worth developing. During the National Poetry Month April challenge, I used several prompts as keys to unlocking my writing gene which gave me poems accepted for publication on at least three occasions." Maggie Mackay
