Prompt 9: Write about a (friendly) character's hidden motives.

We're delving into deeper personality traits here to build multidimensional characters. What face does your character show to others? What kind of mask do they wear? What are their flaws? Explore the grey area between "good" and "bad".

Prompt 8: Bad news arrives. How do your characters react?

Focus on highlighting the differences in their personalities, temperaments and approaches to dealing with the scenario. Who emerges as a leader? Who ends up being reckless? Who falters in their beliefs/journey? Think about their fight, flight and freeze reactions.

Okay, since quite a few of you expressed interest, here goes my attempt at . Just use this hashtag to search for the prompts for each day of NaNo!

Since we're already six days into the challenge, I'll post six prompts today, an hour apart from each other, and then one prompt per day for the rest of the month.

Prompt 1: Describe the setting from the viewpoint of a local.

Have fun!

Would any fiction writers like 30 prompts for 30 days of NaNo? I already have a resource ready and can post the prompts here each day. :) I've carefully curated them based on the general structure of a fiction book so that you won't need any other prompts -- just use these for each character, and things should (hopefully) fall into place.
