Do you want to better understand your character(s)?
Are you developing a new character?
Do you need a break from your novel/current roleplay/school papers/reports for your boss?
Do you want to stretch your writing abilities beyond your comfort zone?
Are you looking for a place to receive a daily writing prompt?
Do you want to receive constructive criticism?
Do you want to learn how to give constructive criticism?
Do you want prompts that don't force one specific genre?
If so, you've come to the right place.
How does it work?
Every day (or sometimes every other day), I will post a prompt to this thread and any necessary instructions. I will create a separate thread in the Writing subform of the Creative Realm forum for each day's prompt. All prompts will be usable in any genre, unless specifically stated otherwise.
If you would like to share what you wrote in response to the prompt, post it as a response to the prompt-specific thread (there will be a link here). Give it a title, too. If you would like to receive constructive criticism, make a note at the top or bottom of your post asking politely; if you do not want constructive criticism, you must make a note at the top or bottom of your post. Once you have seen other people post, you may add posts to that thread giving constructive criticism of previous posts as long as the other person has specified that they would like constructive criticism.
Check back to this thread each day! Each post will contain a prompt and a link to the thread created for that particular prompt. It's up to you to decide whether or not you want to respond to a prompt, and it's also up to you whether or not you want to share publicly your writing produced from the prompt.
What are the rules?
- Use spellcheck. Most internet browsers have built-in spellcheck, but you can also use Microsoft Word or similar programs to run a spellcheck program.
- You may interpret the prompt however you wish.
- You may not publish a response to the prompt in the thread here if it violates one of our site's rules.
- You cannot criticize any post in a prompt's thread unless you have posted in that thread. (You can do so, however, via PM to the author.)
- You cannot publish constructive criticism of a response if the author requested not to receive criticism. (You can, however, send a PM to the author asking permission to share some constructive criticism.)
- Most of the time, there will be neither a word count minimum or maximum unless explicitly stated in the prompt. I do ask, however, that if your response is excessively long, you may wish to refrain from posting it into the thread -- this is at your discretion.
- You can post responses to prompts in any thread. It doesn't have to be on the same day that the prompt was posted.
Excellent! Where's the first prompt?
In the post below this one, I will add the first prompt. As the days increase in number, you will see more of these prompts.
