DESCRIPTION & SETTING WRITING PROMPTS
Various cover designs available
125 pages for 20 separate locations, each section with over 40 writing prompts.
Wherever you are, whatever your location, feature it in your story. Following these prompts develops techniques to immerse a reader in your fiction... and go beyond those hacked-to-death horror tropes.
In what’s usually a normal setting, you’ll create dangers and threats that lurk beyond the obvious, or consider phobias to plague your characters.
Typical prompts include spotting the smallest things as well as the largest, and even something that’s old, new, or out of place. What about plants or animals? How could they become part of your story? There are also prompts for noises and smells, as well as touch and taste - vital in fiction, no matter the genre.
Once you’re fully tuned in to your surroundings, extra prompts include those to nurture ideas for pivotal scenes and perhaps even a plot twist.
Create horror stories with depth... deeper than the abyss.
