700 Story Sparks: Writing Prompts for Every Genre (Ebook)
Every story begins with a spark. This book holds 700 of them.
Staring at a blank page? Building a daily writing habit? Looking for fresh ideas for your classroom, writing group, or next novel? 700 Story Sparks gives you 100 original prompts in each of seven genres, so you will never run out of something to write.
Inside you'll find:
Horror: creaking stairs, unanswered calls, and slow-building dread
Romance: slow burns, second chances, and sparks that fly
Fantasy: dragons, bargains, and kingdoms waiting to be imagined
Science Fiction: strange signals, new worlds, and the futures we might build
Mystery & Thriller: secrets, clues, and a ticking clock
Comedy: chaos, mishaps, and well-timed punchlines
Memoir & Biography: true stories, remembered people, and the life only you have lived
Each chapter mixes four kinds of prompts, so you can pick the spark that suits your mood: ready-made Premises, first-sentence Opening Lines, vivid Characters, and big What If questions. Every genre opens with a short introduction and craft tips to help you make the most of it.
