(Monthly) Short Story Writing Prompts

What do you guys think about these?

1) Troupes With A Twist: Write a story based on a really common phrase/troupe, but give it a twist.
2) "It's...magic!": You're a magician that does party tricks for a living, but one day you find that you have actual powers...just limited to doing the tricks though.
3) Knives Are Out Of The Question: A killer who's scared of blood? How is that possible?
4) A Sticky Note Story: Write a story using only words written by the character(s) on sticky notes
5) Don't Cry Wolf, Dammit! I'm A Sheep!: A poor wolf dresses in sheep's clothing, because he identifies as one

 

6) Er... typical mythical villains try to save the people. Eg. Vampires reveal themselves to prevent a deadly bacterial blood pandemic. or Trolls (actual trolls) goes to architect schools to build better bridges and prevents bad bridge building.

2 reminds me of konosuba
5 reminds me of 2016

 

Late story idea here, but how about writing a mary sue story that isn't shit while still keep the sue-ness? Like the outside-look? Or writting story about a meme (or memes) come alive?

 

So... Sakamato and 2016?

Thanks for the compliment!

 

NICE~! A sticky note story or knifes are out of the question seems like stories I can do

I wonder why this account is tagged tho *jiiiii at iampsyx*

 

So, who's clone are you?

 

Remind me (or @yuzuki when she comes back) come April~

 

O-ohohohoho~ >y<

 

So appropriate of a novel reading site to have story writing sections!

 

So it's overdone to death, got it. Thought that a story where there's some organization hunting for Mary Sues and the story of the Doge meme would be interesting...

 

Doge meme story?

 

I don't know? Just give it out there. Maybe about the doge giving advice and saving people in the memepopcalyspe?

 

so hows the vote?

 

Villains is in the lead

 

Thanks for reminding me! >.<

And so the topic for March is...



VILLAIN REHABILITATION PROGRAM! \o\ \o/ /o/
Typical mythical villains/monsters try to save the people (eg. Vampires reveal themselves to prevent a deadly bacterial blood pandemic, and trolls go to architect schools to build better bridges and prevent bad bridge building)

 

Got my stumped, can't think of a good story idea from this

 

I'm thinking of using zombies! \o/ They'll be something like undead patrols, always looking out for evildoers and scattered everywhere on the planet!

 

Good for you. I still can't think of anything good
