If you're staring at a black screen, your muse is on vacation, or you just need a random prompt for any reason, here are two pretty good Random Prompt Generators.

Random Prompt Generator #1 
This generator will give you a phrase or line of dialogue as a prompt.

Random Prompt Generator #2
This generator will give you either a random word, phrase, sentence, or paragraph. Just fill out the type of word you're looking for if it asks you (noun, verb, adj, etc and complexity) and it'll pop them out for you!

Did you guys take a look at the generator that [livejournal.com profile] kitty_fic posted earlier?

I've been playing with it all day, saving scenarios for future use and trying to find some inspiration for the fic I'm writing. I discovered that the site also has two other generators.

Here's the info and links to them:

Problem: Your characters lack depth
Solution: Archetype's Character Generator

What it is: A quick character sketch filled with the kinds of little details that makes stories engaging: character gender, cardinal traits, weaknesses, and most prized possession. Just like us, characters' behaviors and preferences should be rooted in both genetics and past experience.

Problem: Your characters don't feel like "real" people
Solution: Archetype's Everyday Problems Generator

What it is: The details are what make characters real, and characters, like us, have little quirks, problems, and beliefs that make them unique. Indiana Jones is afraid of snakes, Monk has OCD, and Clark Kent has that little Kryptonite allergy. This generator will help you add depth to characters by suggesting everyday fears, quirks, beliefs, and problems.


The website also has a ton of links covering writer's block and characterization. It's definitely worth checking out!
