Draw an opening scene to begin a story, from 8 authored story starters. Each one hands you a situation and a first move; where it goes is yours. Copy it, or star it to save it to your toolkit. The filter starts on story starters, with every other format and genre one tap away.
Pick a genre or format, then draw a writing prompt from the 8 prompts on hand. Copy it or save it to your toolkit.
Everything runs in your browser. Prompts you save are stored only on this device, in your writer's toolkit.
A story starter is a way in, not an outline. Each one gives you a character in a situation with a single pressure applied, enough to make the first scene almost write itself. Begin exactly where the prompt points and keep going; you can decide what it all means later.
Use them for a warm-up, a flash-fiction sprint, or the seed of something longer. If a starter grabs you, star it and keep it in yourtoolkit so you can pick it back up. For a single opening sentence instead of a scene, switch the filter tofirst line; for spoken-only scenes, try dialogue.
Once you are moving, the plot twist generator can throw your story a turn, or open the full writing prompt generator for every genre at once.
