OK, so I want to write this short story over Sunday-Monday
I'm going to write the whole thing, and worry about editing later
I'm going to base it off of the events I'm going through at the time (or at least the location) because I'm going to be at a hotel on Sunday afternoon through Monday evening
I have no plot, or genre
So I need to decide on that stuff.
I also need to pick a few of my characters to write on, so like yeah. I can either start from scratch, or go with what I have.
This is basically a pass time for while I'm in the car, and suppose to be sleeping at night time for these two days.
If you could help me come up with a few inspiring prompts/words/ other that would be great!
I could also use a list of character names, any gender, and maybe some character traits.
Once I finish it, I can post it here if anyone is interested. Though it'll take me some time, because I can't bring a laptop with me.
Yeah, this is so random, but I'm forcing myself to write more so I'm more in practice. I might write a short story, and write a bigger one based off of it once I'm finished.
IDK, just gonna do this, and if you could help, that would be awesome. I have to duck out RN, because I'm going to see a play tonight, but will be back later!

Prompts

  • There's someone in my head, but it's not me.
  • Write a short story about a character who is about to kill their nemesis. The catch? Not so long ago, they were best friends. What happened between then and now?
  • Daughter of Death
  • You think I'll be the dark sky so you can be the star? I'll swallow you whole.
  • "How do you do that?" I asked, looking at them confused. "How do I do what?" they turned to me, batting their eyelashes innocently. "Everytime you say my name it's as if a small part of me shatters into a million tiny pieces," I explained. "Ah yes, I see. The power of words and the fragility of the human ego. It is not I that do that to you. It is in actuality you who do that to you."
  • No one expects an angel to set the world on fire.
  • Her chances were slim, but she couldn't let that stop her. It was escape or death. And she wasn't ready to die.

(Also I got these prompts off of Pinterest so if they're bad it's not my fault I swear~)
