The Tarot–the iconic deck of beautifully-illustrated playing cards–has seen a bit of a resurgence in recent years. While the Tarot has historically been used to both play games and divine the future, the cards’ intricate designs and deep-rooted archetypes also make them the perfect prompts for stuck writers. In this generative workshop, we’ll dust off those decks we bought for the artwork and put them to good use in helping us create new ideas, explore unique story structures, and dive deeper into our characters’ psyches. Don’t have a deck? No problem. Several online decks are available for free!
