Some more prompts! These ones are in a more generalized style compared to the ones on the first chapter, some and most of these can be used for just about anything, it doesn't always have to be writing! Feel free to use these!
I'm also going to go into detail about these prompts and why I recommend them.
Some fluff of two characters of yours, such as oc's personal ships, and etc. Writing a bit of fluff now and then can be super relaxing compared to writing constant drama or serious stuff, it's also fun to write as its just stuff you can use to test out writing new scenes and exploring new things (writing-wise!). I find writing fluff lets me have a little fun in my day and test out new stuff.
Cryptids. Writing about cryptids or making up new cryptids can be fun! Writing in vague detail about the looks or making up new stories just to go with it, you might even end up making a new character! I write often about cryptids as I enjoy the stories they are from and I find writing stories based on them or etc. helps me get into the mood of writing something more serious and dark.
Write about what's around you. Things like writing about people close to you or writing about what you see can definitely help you describe things and scenic stuff, like objects (without stating what object it is), moods certain areas give you and etc.
Characters interacting. Similar to fluff character interactions are just as important in writing (or I find them to be). Writing characters interacting with each other is great for fleshing out scenes along with the characters themselves. It doesn't have to be a scene and could just be two characters meeting for the first time or etc. I think writing these things are great for fleshing out things for characters such as: How they speak, what tones of voice do they tend to use, any speech issues (like stutters when nervous and etc.) and anything else that helps flesh them out.
These next few are songs that work really well for coming up with some scenes or are great for focusing on writing
Wasteland Baby-Hozier This song is calmer and has low tones (not sure if right word to use), along with being a good song for background noise, I would also recommend just checking out some of the other songs on the same album (although it's been a while since I've listened to it).
Ceaser-The Oh Hellos This song does have under themes to it, but it also has a calm tone to it along with being a catchy song with some great lyrics that have inspired some of my past works
Linger Longer-Cosmo Sheldrake I love this song, its mostly instrumentals but there are some lyrics to it. Some of the lyrics have also inspired some of my other works. Its a calm song but it a great bop.
Spring and the Storm-Tally Hall This song is a pretty upbeat one and I find that listening to upbeat songs helps when writing a scene with happy undertones and etc. I'm also just a sucker for this artist and expect a few of there other songs on here too
The Whole World and You-Tally Hall (See what I mean?) This song is literally the definition of a song to listen too when writing a romantic scene. (I'm not sure if there are any darker undertones in the song but let's just take it at face value) Some of the lyrics can be used for inspo and ideas.
Cedarwood Road-U2 If you're ever stuck on ideas for a book, novel, short story and etc. this song has lots of inspiration in the lyrics.
These are just recommendations, I realized that a lot of people really liked my prompt list from before so I thought I would make a new one that's just more generalized? and has a lot more info on why I recommend these things.
I also plan to write more stuff on writing tips and such as I find those super helpful
