------------------------
This week’s writing prompts will have two main topics.
Writing Prompts Contest #37:Merchants
Writing Prompts Contest #38:Lady Cultivator
Writing Prompts Contest #37:Merchants
The job of merchant is an important one which helps the normal operations of human society. Merchants are also quite common in many stories, such as greedy gold-loving goblin merchants, strange merchants that wander the world in Japanese fantasy novels, weapons dealers that sell arms to countries and individuals, and so on.
Most merchants have the goal of obtaining more money and resources. There are also a few merchants with rather mysterious identities, such as the main character of Trafford's Trading Club. The main character of that novel was forced to inherit a mysterious shop, and thus entered a new hidden side of society... No matter what, the types of products sold are determined by the merchant himself.
What types of mystical items do you want to sell? Start writing about them today!
Here are some merchant related novels as references:
Gourmet of Another World
I have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World
Writing Prompts Contest #38:Lady Cultivator
One of the most popular theme of Chinese novels is Cultivation. The theme mainly stemmed from novels targeted at males, but in China, popular male lead cultivation novels have numerous female fans. In recent years, China has given birth to many high-quality and popular female cultivator novels (maybe we will translate them in the future).
Why is cultivation so popular among female readers? Let's look at the main tropes in cultivation novels: protagonist levels up via cultivation, gains strength, defeat enemies, eventually to become the strongest immortal in the world (or beyond the world). In fact, this is a person's pursuit of strength and immortality. We have reason to believe that be it men or women, strength and immortality is always attractive since strength and immortality is an eternal pursuit of humanity. From this aspect, as long as one does not give up hope towards life, all of us are potential lovers of cultivation novels.
Webnovel has many stories regarding cultivation, but most of the leads are male, so Webnovel only has a few female lead cultivation works. We sincerely recommend these stories that are different fron traditional romance stories to everyone. We also wish that everyone can create even more excellent female cultivator novels.
Below is our recommendation of female lead cultivation novels. Everyone can study the cultivation theme to seek inspiration.
Describing cultivation for beginners in great detail from beginning to end:
Lady Cultivator
Fusing cultivation and other elements (reincarnation, transmigration, romance, etc) into one.
Ghost Emperor Wild Wife: Dandy Eldest Miss
Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss
The Evil Consort Above An Evil King
Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor
