In an ideal world, what kind of story would you write?
Be as specific as possible, include genre, length, the type of reactions the story will provoke in your readers as well as as many details of the story itself you can think of. Don't hold back, this is a fantasy and you can have anything you want.
One of your main characters finds herself/himself in a position where she/he has to defend something she/he doesn’t believe in.
My reason for not writing and for being late with today's NaNo inspiration: Fever. It didn't really inspire me, fingers crossed it'll work better for you.
There was supposed to be a picture prompt today, but the picture upload is broken for me.
So instead of being inspired by the photograph, write about something that's broken.
Write about a forgetful character or have a character forget something that has terrible consequences.
(And I'll try my best to post these in the morning again ... if I do it first thing, I hope I won't forget. Fingers crossed.)
Freedom: What does it mean for your main character? Is she/he free according to her/his definition? If not, how is she/he going to change that?
Inspiration lurks everywhere, even in unwanted emails. Use one of the emails in your spam folder, or, if you are one of the few lucky ones who don’t get spammed, use the following paragraph:
“I have now decided to give all my wealth to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth so far. I once asked members of my family to close one of my account and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them.”
