[Meta] How do you folks feel about pulling prompts from writing prompt lists online?
[Meta] How do you folks feel about pulling prompts from writing prompt lists online?
One of the prompts on this list here is
"Describe an everyday item as if it's magic."
is vaguely similar to my cyberpunk prompt.
Which makes me feel like I'm kinda reinventing the wheel here.
Plus, the lists I am talking about are enormous! It would take years for us to run out of prompts from them. Definitely a good way to keep the community's pulse going until the prompt posting process starts to happen more organically.
- 100 Creative Writing Prompts for Writers - Writer's Digest
- reedsyprompt's weekly writing prompts (1800+ prompts available!)
I'll be sure to hyperlink the source of the prompt in the body, (or in the case of reedsy, possibly the URL field.)
So what do you say? Shall we borrow prompts until we've gathered some steam?
Kind of like WritingPrompts on Reddit? I think that'd be pretty fun and a nice way to come up with some original content! We could even steal some of their prompts too lol.
