- Genres
- I'm open to a wide range of genres. Obscenely wide. It's harder for me to list all I do like than all I don't like.
My favorite settings are fantasy combined with something else, multiverse, post-apoc, historical (mixed with something else), and futuristic. I'm not limited to those, but it's a good start.
My favorite genres include mystery, adventure, action, drama, tragedy (must be mixed with something else and kept balanced), romance (again must be mixed, and more.
I'm happy to include elements of slice-of-life and romance, but doing them on their own doesn't hold my interest indefinitely.

My Writing Explorations series of exercises are a chance for users to explore new concepts and practice the art of raising two fingers to Writer's Block while screaming obscenities to fickle muses: to rebel against the idea that a person requires a mythical force inside them to make new and amazing things.
No. Listen well, users: there is no being inside you waiting to be let out. You are the writer, and in this exercise, you are given a place to push not only against Writer's Block, but also against the forces of stagnation. Feel trapped in your genre? Explore a new one! Stuck with a singular archetype? Do something else! In this thread, you will not be critiqued,and I will read every entry and let you know what makes me happy about it (temporarily not doing this). Should you wish it, I will happily offer my thoughts on how it might be improved, but I will not comb looking for fixes: this isn't the place: this place is for safely trying new things and indulging a love of writing.
Shake the bars of your cell block and roar, writers!
[fieldbox=How do I take part?]Curious about how this works? Good! Look over the offered themes and prompts and the bonus rounds, then think about them. Then, take your thoughts and get writing. You can write to one or more (or none) of the prompts, the theme in the thread title, the bonuses: hell, you can even cast aside all of what I offer if you get a different idea.
The whole point is "get writing!"[/fieldbox]
Prompts:
Sorry for the late post, and I have a new update (as of 4/1, and no, it's not an April fool joke).
This week and for the next few coming, I will not be reading through every response and commenting on them. Recent weeks have been a flurry of mental activity that have made it difficult to read and pay proper attention.
Know that I still love every single post people put up, and it's a joy to read them. I will not be pausing the exercises themselves—I enjoy coming up with themes and ideas for them, and it forces me to stretch my brain in new directions.
I will pick back up on reading once I have more free time to do so!

Prompts:
- The climax approaches! Instead of an epic battle, the big conflict is solved through something unexpected.
- Uh oh! The prophecy was for bizzaro world! Time to figure out the correct one.
- The prince charming who spends most of the story pursuing a spot as love interest misses it to someone only obvious in retrospect.
- Write in a random genre.
- Someone in the story is obsessed with tongue flexibility.
- A bra strap is twisted and won't straighten.
- The twisted psycho is not the killer, and is in fact totally innocent.
- The butler is falsely accused. It's too late.
