Writing Prompt - Mystery

  Writing Prompt Mystery Adam Webster 3/30/2021 “Surrealism is an art movement that utilizes imagery from the unconscious mind. Base a short story off of a dream you had but didn’t quite understand.” https://www.thesaurus.com/writingprompts/mystery-writing-prompts #4 A dream I had but didn’t quite understand: Years ago I had a dream where I was in an old style room, looked like fancy cabin quarters on a train. Dark stained wood, almost black color lined the walls. Green and gold drapes on the windows. Two large windows that spanned the length of each side wall. A single door with a window. In the cabin there was a brown and black chest, in it were old bottles with sand sculptures in them, the sand would move and mold into different sculptures and shapes if you held them, some would keep moving as if it was a movie being played in the bottle. One looked like a sailboat in a storm, riding the rough waves, up and down the sailboat went. Another pushed the sand to the top of the bottle the

Writing Prompt - Dialogue

  Writing Prompt Dialogue Adam Webster 3/26/2021 Use these four words in a conversation: "uncanny," "gruesome," "running," "occurrence." https://www.thesaurus.com/writingprompts/prompts-for-writing-dialogues #9 “Well, that was a gruesome fight.” “No-- really! What made you think that?” “May have been due to the: barbarian swinging a severed spine, while running in a circle, and chanting a blood oath.” “Was it though? Sounds normal to me.” “You’re right, it was the uncanny occurrence of goats that swarmed the barbarian, which resulted in a goat demi-god being summoned. Who then ate the entire village of goblins.” “And.” “And the goat demi-god has become the barbarian’s familiar.” “And.” “And it demands we call him; Fluffy Emperor Goat-god, son of Zeus.

Writing Prompt - Love Story

  Writing Prompt Love Story Adam Webster 3/22/2021 Two people with opposing personalities are sitting next to each other on a long flight. What brings them together during the plane ride? https://www.thesaurus.com/writingprompts/love-story-writing-prompts #7 As I am attempting to create a fan-fiction of Avatar: The Last Airbender where Azula finds redemption and healing, along with reconnecting with her mother, I will rework this into a budding connection between a newly reformed Azula and the funny guy Sokka. Two characters from Avatar: The Last Airbender. Azula and Sokka are left alone to complete a simple delivery mission; from the Fire nation capital to the Earth kingdom city of Ba Sing Se. Azula sits in the saddle atop Appa’s back and stares out at the clouds, Sokka takes the reins on Appa, and can’t help but dart his eyes across the clouds looking for some way to strike up a conversation. “So, you like fire bending?” Sokka awkwardly asked. “What?” Azula responded.

Writing Prompt - Gratitude

  Writing Prompt Gratitude Adam Webster 3/21/2021 "What about your hobby or special interest makes you excited?" https://www.thesaurus.com/writingprompts/gratitude-writing-prompts #17 The special interest that comes to mind is the DC character Deathstroke also known as Slade Wilson . A character that is normally only known for his major role during the “New Teen Titans: Judas Contract” story arc. Recently the “Zack Snyder’s Justice League ” came out on the HBO MAX video streaming service, it was a 4-hour cut of the “Justice League” film that came out in 2017.
