2023 Bait List

[hwarium]

Bait Lists Like the bait on a fishing hook, these are the things to prompt if you want to catch a writer. Except in 17hols the fish gives you the bait and teaches you how to fish. A bait list is a list of things someone is interested in creating. Wanting to prompt? Have a look here for some inspiration. Content creators, its time to confess. Need ideas? Genres - magical realism? sports anime? mafia? Dynamics - casual intimacy? unrequited love? professional enemies to lovers? People - yes I mean biases, also calling out everyone who listened to Midnights (4am version) Narrative Tropes - hero's journey? man vs nature? (Woozi vs Hoshi) Other media - bleak boyband bingo, chainsaw man, formula 1 (Check out the 2022 bait list and the 2021 bingo post). Please don't reply to bait lists On dreamwidth, you can't edit a comment once someone has replied to it. Creators, feel free to drop your socials if you want to get yelled at.
