- 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 unless you request it. 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?]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:
- A small problem becomes massive when fae royalty are involved.
- The hero is neither good nor kind, but loves existence deeply and with endless curiosity.
- Overindulgence on the part of most involved characters leads to the forfeit of many lives and suffering.
- A character is bound against their will to answer orders given by every member of one sex. However, one person has power above those orders: the temporary master.
Bonus Rounds:
- Write in a random genre.
- "And it doesn't bother you at all that you nearly killed her?"
- He sat in the infirmary, wondering why it had been him alone who was spared.
- "I did it for love."
"A person who's capable of doing that isn't capable of love!" - A borrowed sweater is never returned. The borrower keeps it as a memento.
- Someone misunderstands another's actions or the results of a 'scientific' study and makes wildly incorrect assumptions.
- It seemed wrong for her long hair to be so caked in blood and other half-dried filth.
- Horrible acts and scenes are broken up by strange moments of tenderness.
- Withdrawal from fae drugs leads to a breach of trust that persists.
