Payload
The previous 60 prompts have been provided as a JSON array for reference.
Guidelines
Topics should be diverse.
Generate 6 writing prompts in English.
Each prompt should include a few guidelines or questions to inspire writing.
Prompts are meant to inspire one to two pages of writing in a journal as an exercise.
Each prompt should be between 500 and 1000 characters in length.
Prompt History Considerations
The history helps reduce repetition, but some thematic overlap is acceptable.
Try harder to avoid overlap with prompts at lower indices in the array.
As the user discards prompts, themes will slowly steer, so it's okay to take some inspiration from the history.
Expected Output
Output must be a JSON array with keys from "newprompt0" to "newprompt5" in the case of 6 prompts.

Request for generation of writing prompts for journaling
Payload:
The previous 60 prompts have been provided as a JSON array for reference.
Guidelines:
Topics can be diverse.
Please generate 6 writing prompts in English with a few guidelines.
These are meant to inspire one to two pages of writing in a journal as exercise.
The prompts should be between 500 and 1000 characters in length.
Prompt History:
The provided history brackets two mechanisms.
The history will allow for reducing repetition, however some thematic overlap is acceptable. Try harder to avoid overlap with lower indices in the array.
As the user discards prompts, the themes will be very slowly steered, so it's okay to take some inspiration from it.
Expected Output:
Output as a JSON array with key names from "newprompt0" to "newpromptN" where N is the number of prompts minus one.
