One prompt could be 'You find a magic key. Where does it lead you?'. For this, a student could write about finding the key in their backyard. They might say the key leads them to a secret garden full of talking animals and magical plants. It's a place where they can have adventures and make new friends.
A prompt like 'You discover a hidden door in your school library' would be great. The student could start by saying they were looking for a book when they noticed a strange crack in the wall. Pushing on it, a door opened. Inside, there were old books that told stories of the school's past and a friendly ghost who was the librarian long ago. They could have a conversation with the ghost and learn about the old days of the school.
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.
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.
Journal entry based stories can be used in creative writing by providing a personal and intimate perspective. They can serve as a starting point for developing characters, as the entries often reveal a character's thoughts, feelings, and experiences. For example, if you find an interesting journal entry about someone's fear of change, you can build a story around that character's journey to overcome this fear. Also, the raw and unfiltered nature of journal entries can add authenticity to a story.
Well, 'prompts fanfic' could be fanfiction that is inspired by certain prompts.
