Writing Prompts 58


It’s the holiday season. Here are some treats for your muse.

  1. Imagine a group of people trying to survive in the wilderness. They return to camp and find their food stores ruined. What happened to them? Where are they going to find food now?
  2. It’s a common trope that magic and computers don’t mix. How does a technologically advanced society protect itself against their enemy’s powerful magics?
  3. Write a brains vs. brawn story. The challenge — the “brains” character is the antagonist.
  4. The main character takes up gardening to distract himself from his pain. How do his issues manifest in his garden? How does cultivating this garden help him overcome them?
  5. A stranger has overstayed her welcome. How do her hosts persuade her to leave?
