I'm going to be posting daily prompts to inspire writing, art or journaling. Use these as you would like to help keep your creative practices moving.
Key words/ideas:
Some thoughts that occur to me:
problem solving
determination
self-destruction
change
exploitation
Some thoughts that occur to me:
Take a well known story. What if every character was utterly ruthless and willing to do anything to win? Work through the plot thinking about how this would change things.
A hero on their deathbed tells the real story of what they did to win.
A character gains access to a forbidden space via determination. Why? And what happens when they succeed?
Note that cards are drawn at random and may be drawn more than once. In that case I will repost with an additional idea. I am going to cap the number of repeats at 3 until I’ve been through the whole deck, but other than this I let the luck of the draw decide. Coming up with more ideas for the same card will force me to be more imaginative and its something I strongly recommend.
