Garnet Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Not sure if this is the right board for this, mods can feel free to move!I found a series of drabble prompt lists brigid sent me a few years ago, different from the Natto set that I had been working from. Some of them had a lot of repeats or some words that didn't interest me, so I pared them down, consolidated, and added some new ones.Posting them here in case anyone else wants to do them for inspiration or fun exercise.

Natto Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Oh this is awesome! I might use these in the future if I want to restart my drabble thread...I'm getting a bit tired of my old list, so it's great to have something new. it's so cool that you made this, thank you! Link to comment
FreeFluShots Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 This is cool! I hope you don't mind if I use some of them for art instead of drabbles? BTW, "loud" is on there twice. Link to comment
Garnet Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Nope, I think that's a great idea And whoops, thank you, I replaced one! Link to comment
Bisc Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 i may do this... im having the biggest fetish drought of my entire life and i neeeed some action xD although i wanna clarify, drabbles are short yeah? are there rules? Link to comment
Garnet Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 I think traditionally, drabbles are meant to be 100 words. If that's part of the game/challenge for you, go for it! I personally just wing it and write anything from a bite-sized few sentences up to 1k words or so because I'm bad at rules. Link to comment
PuddinPop Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Oooh, Garnet, these are delightful Thank you so much for sharing these and allowing people to use them!I want to start a new drabble thread now Link to comment
Bisc Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Yeah I suck a rules too xD I did start and mine are tuning out at about 300 so I'm not too bad! Link to comment
FreeFluShots Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I just noticed shower is on there twice too! Could we get a replacement for that one? Because I really want to do this haha, I've actually already drawn something for "Hands", "Bath", "Jelousy" and "Doctor". Link to comment
Garnet Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 I JUST REALLY LIKE SHOWERS OKAY. Fixed, thanks for the catch! Link to comment
tma Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I think traditionally, drabbles are meant to be 100 words. If that's part of the game/challenge for you, go for it! I personally just wing it and write anything from a bite-sized few sentences up to 1k words or so because I'm bad at rules.I *cannot* write only 100 words because... verbose. lol! I personally see drabbles (for me when I write them) as being a "scene" rather than a full-out story, and it lessens the pressure for me if I'm feeling like writing ideas that I have aren't "big" enough for a story.

tarotgal Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Thanks so much for the list, Garnet! I'm taking a stab at doing actual drabbles! I'm so bad at sticking to a word limit. Link to comment
