-------
This week’s writing prompts will have two main topics.
Writing Prompts Contest #30:Hunting
Writing Prompts Contest #31:Path to Idoldom
Writing Prompts Contest #30:Hunting
Hunting is a rather common topic in some fantasy or game type stories. Hunters always have outstanding techniques for defeating their prey. Hunters are calm, patient, and decisive. Hunters are the rulers of the forest and the worst enemy of monsters.
1) Monster Hunters
Monster hunters are active in the wilderness. They chase after mutated deer in dense forests, and shoot down eagles that soar through the mountains. Blue dragons that live in deserts, demons that live in the abyss, octopus and other strange fish monsters that live in the deep sea, lions and wild horses on the plains, and other such wild beasts are nothing more than a worthy adventure for a monster hunter.
Example novel:
Monster Paradise
2) City Hunters
Hunters can also reside in cities. There are even more types of "prey" in the city, such as: vicious criminals, mutated beasts that are invading a city, vampires or those with supernatural abilities that are hiding amongst ordinary humans, and so on. City hunters must be even stronger and more reliable when faced with the endless amount of threats and challenges.
Writing Prompts Contest #31:Path to Idoldom
Becoming an idol is probably a secret fantasy many people have had before.
Web novels have many stories about the entertainment industry. Apart from novels about celebrities being in love, there are many career and romance fusion stories about the entertainment industry. To have an initial plot of becoming a celebrity before gaining love in the later stages, stories which have the dual success of both career and love are very well-liked by readers.
You can create a main lead you like. She could be born for the stage, having talent and beauty. As she works hard to participate in auditions, she slowly garners the attention of people to eventually become a celebrity queen.
Perhaps you can also create a unique protagonist, allowing her to use extraordinary means to conquer the entertainment industry in interesting ways. For example, the daughter of a rich tycoon who wishes to become a superstar. When she wishes to be the spokesperson of a particular brand, her parents will buy over the brand, turning her wish into reality. When she wishes to participate in a film, her parents become the biggest investor of the film, giving her the opportunity to star in the film...
Unleash your imagination: Your protagonist can be of all sorts. She can use various means (auditions, talent shows, becoming an influencer...) to rise to the top of the entertainment industry and become a true superstar and idol!
