[Closed] Collecting Short Story Prompts for August 2023
Added 2023-07-24 03:38:19 +0000 UTCOnce again I'm here to ask all of you for short story prompts! I'll take the more popular ones as decided by the number of hearts (or that I particularly like) in the comments and make a poll at the start of the month. The winner will be made into a short story of a thousand or so words.
Not many rules on what you can suggest at the moment. That will mostly be figured out as we go. Besides that, the short story will come out before the end of the next month.
Rules for prompts:
- No NSFW (Patreon would get testy about that)
- No prompts about anything directly related to my current stories (can't be something the MCs would come across)
- Not doing depression or similar

Misunderstood deity: What happens if the highpriest/pope/archbishop of some typical judgemental deity of light type church finds out their deity isn’t like that at all and all the stuff the church is doing is just because their deity was to lazy at the time to correct one priest who said something that could be misinterpreted as racist and now that the church has developed this far the deity is too shy and selfanxious to correct them.

2023-07-24 07:34:17 +0000 UTCMy suggestion this time can be summed up by Utopia. There many depictions of Utopias out there and nearly all of them are actually dystopias. My suggestion this time is what is your idea of a ideal world, what would be your Utopia.
