One good prompt could be 'Imagine a world where time runs backwards in a novel. How would the characters' lives be different?'. This can lead to really unique storylines as it flips the normal concept of time.
One could be 'A time traveler gets stuck in the past and has to find a way back'. It's full of potential for adventure and drama.
One creative prompt could be to imagine you are a peasant during the French Revolution. Describe your daily life, the fear of the guillotine, and how the political unrest affects you. This allows for a vivid exploration of a historical event from an ordinary person's perspective.
You can search online. There are many websites that offer writing prompts for novels. Just type in the keywords and you'll get a bunch of options.
Well, first, you just pick a prompt that grabs your interest. For example, if the prompt is about a Victorian - era detective, you start by researching the time period. Look into the fashion, the social norms, and the technology. Then, you create your character based on what you've learned. Just let your imagination run wild from there.
A prompt like 'Imagine a world where people can communicate only through music. Write a short story set in this world.' In this world, emotions, ideas, and stories are all conveyed through melodies and rhythms. A character might struggle to express their love through the right musical notes, creating a poignant and unique story.
Definitely. Novels provide a wealth of ideas. You can learn about different story structures, themes, and ways of describing things, all of which can inspire your own writing.
One great love prompt for fanfic could be 'Two characters from different worlds fall in love during a journey together.' This allows for a lot of exploration of their differences and how love can bridge those gaps. For example, in a fantasy fanfic, a human and an elf might meet while on a quest to save their respective lands. Their love story can then be intertwined with the challenges of the quest and the cultural differences between their races.
One sex prompt could be 'A forbidden love between a vampire and a werewolf that leads to a passionate encounter in a moonlit forest.' Another could be 'Two characters from different historical eras are brought together by a magical spell and discover a new level of intimacy.'
Another good prompt is 'How does the setting in a novel contribute to the overall mood?'. Take 'Wuthering Heights' for instance. The desolate moors add to the dark and brooding mood of the story. The wild and untamed nature of the setting reflects the passionate and often unruly emotions of the characters.
One great free write prompt for fiction could be 'A character discovers a mysterious door in an old attic.' This immediately sets a scene full of potential. The character could be anyone - a curious child, an old homeowner, or a nosy neighbor. And the door? It could lead to a magical world, a time - locked room filled with secrets from the past, or a portal to another dimension. It gives the writer a lot to work with in terms of creating a story.
