Daily Character Question

The Voice Within
Write a scene where your Antagonist is rolling on their bed, unable to sleep. What is keeping them up at night? Is it a thing they did, or… could it be it is something they failed to do in the past? And, above all, will they ever have a good night’s sleep?

Any work you create based off this prompt belongs to you, no sourcing is necessary though it would be really appreciated! And don’t forget to tag maxkirin (or tweet @MistreKirin), so that I can check...

Daily Weird Prompt

Teacher’s Fave
Write about a character who happens to be a teenager attending high-school. The catch? One of this character’s teachers is always really kind, honest, and helpful to them— seemingly without reason. Double catch? The teacher is actually this character’s child from the future, who came back in time to prevent a cataclysm that… this character is going to cause.

Alternative Title: Back to the place where it all began.

Missed an episode? Check out the playlist!

Welcome back to ‘Max Plays’, a gaming segment where I play through a story-focused video game and examine the way that it builds a narrative. This time around I am playing through a big one! None other than Square’s finest: Final Fantasy IX. In this game we take the role of a ragtag party of characters, and partake in a story that at first appears to be about war between two great nations— but t...

Good morning, writerly friends!

PS: Did you know this weekly reminder has been running for over a year now? This weekly Friday segment began over a year, along side my Story Seeds & Character Questions! Crazy how time flies, huh?

And now, ladies and gentlemen (and of course, the rest of us not included within that binary), if you were...

Daily Story Seed

Elemental Influence
Write about a character with a strange burden: unbeknownst to them their soul serves as the critical center for the elements, making it so that whatever they feel is reflected on the world around them. Explore the point of view of a character whose emotions directly influence nature. And, above all, who is the one truly in control here: this character, or their emotions?

Lots of fun. Really interesting character design.
I was asked to design a new sword, too. So that was fun. (:

Oh my! I can’t believe I missed this, you did a great job, Emy!
