It’s the first of October. You know what that means. Time to start spooky month off right with a new batch of writing prompts.
- Our main characters wish to confront a greedy merchant. What kind of trap do they build for the merchant? What will they use as bait?
- Write a story that begins with an ally’s funeral.
- Write about a secret raid our main characters launch on an enemy lair. For bonus points and extra mileage, write a similar scene from the enemies’ perspective as they discover the intrusion and defend their base.
- Write about how your main character loses his entire fortune in a single night.
- The main character is a celebrity who has just been (very publicly) canceled. What must she do to secure a living? How will she try to restore her good name?
