[TEXT]: "God waited in heaven. Nobody came."


Your main character dies, and goes to heaven. But when he gets there, the gate is open and heaven itself is empty. What does he find in this deserted paradise? Where are the other people? And more importantly, where is the ruler of it all?

[TEXT] There are no gatekeepers


Something has shifted within the multiverse. There are none left guarding the doorways to other dimensions. Something is coming.


Nothing will stop it.

[TEXT] Imagine if you will


A world without limits. A world where any power you can imagine is yours to command. A world where anything is possible. A world where you are a god.


Just like everyone else.


Now try to envision what would happen if there was a war. How would that play out?

[TEXT] The Hunter


Story


The Hunter watches as the trees kept falling. It'd been happening for days now and he had no idea why. He'd tried getting closer to the line of fallen trees but every time he drew near he'd pass out and wake up back where he'd began. He knew that there was something wrong, but what was it?


Questions


Who is The Hunter? How ls he related to the forest? Why are the trees falling? What is stopping him from getting closer? What is happening?


I'll leave it there, go you creative writers you. Even if it's only a few hundred words or less. Just write. And post your story in a comment, I'll try to provide feedback for all of them. Not saying I'll be able to improve it since I'm not that great at writing, but I'll try anyway. What are you waiting for? WRITE!

[CONT] A Brave New World


In the Earth's final days she had time to send only a single ship away from the coming apocalypse. Originally designed for a long range colonization plan, the Discovery had become humanity's only lifeboat. It held in cryogenic slumber 1200 of Earth's best minds and bodies and 200 augmented soldiers to provide security and protection on a new and possibly hostile world. With 120 crew and 100 robotic remotes to provide the muscle, as well as the various vehicles needed, it was hoped that this would be enough to start over and rebuild human civilization. It also held one very unique treasure, a prototype of the next generation of cybernetic augmentation. She was something special. When the asteroid impacted the doomed planet, her children were already well past Jupiter. Far enough away to to survive the cataclysm.


Not trusting to chance, wisdom dictated each of the crew, scientists and colonists would have a digital copy stored in case of disaster. It was hoped, in vain that they would never be needed.


The adventure begins...

[TEXT] Very nearly the speed of light


In 1991 scientists detected an object traveling through our solar system at 99.99% the speed of light. It was determined to be a computer glitch caused by a calibration inaccuracy, most likely due to human error.


This same object has been detected at least 15 times since.


Today it was observed again. This time it's heading directly for Earth, slowing its velocity as it approaches our world.


What's the story?

[TEXT] Return of the Dead


Write a story in which your character is already dead, but feels their demise was premature and seeks a path back to the world of the living.


Do they truly deserve to live? By what means to they seek to come back? What might they be willing to sacrifice for another chance? Would their returning benefit or perhaps even save another?


Just some questions to consider or disregard as you see fit.


Have fun!

[TEXT]: Power and Control


In this prompt, write about the most intense form of control you can think of. Think 1984 Big Brother level of control. I am currently using this idea to write a short story about a man who is addicted to contacts lenses, which would give him a weeks worth of vision before he was blind again, but I'd be interested to know what you think of this prompt too! Does your main character struggle and maybe even win against this incredible control, or do they fail and stay trapped forever? You decide.

[TEXT] Everything's going so well


Sometimes my life feels like a true "A Series of Unfortunate Events". I'm sure everyone feels this way at some point, but it never ceases to amaze me when my life turns into a Rube Goldberg-like device of torture. Make me feel better today by writing about a character with even worse luck than mine. In this prompt, I want absolutely everything to go wrong.


And, as always, have fun. :)

How about a prompt that's a little... unorthodox today? My favorite part of the batman series is, of course, the AWESOME villains! Each one has such a detailed backstory... Gotham City certainly creates some twisted minds. So for today's prompt, tell me all about Gotham City's newest baddie. Have fun with this one guys!

[TEXT] A Totally Random Contest: Ascension


Write an epic story about a character who is confined to a wheelchair, but is unexpectedly thrust into an alternate reality where they have great powers and must save the world from evil. The tenuous connection between these two realities is slowly collapsing. Time is of the essence. How will it end?


This prompt can be interpreted in many ways. Is what is happening real? Does the character have any control over when they cross over? Who are their friends? What evil are they fighting? How does it feel to be freed from the wheelchair? Just some questions to consider or disregard as you see fit.


Have fun!
