Promptorium Scroll No. 10

You just woke from cryogenic slumber, only to find out that instead of the 300 years you were supposed to sleep, you've actually been out for 300,000. Apparently it was a comma not a decimal point. You need glasses.

How to Use This Prompt (Without Summoning an Accidental Demon):

1. Read the prompt. Let it whisper sweet nonsense into your imagination.

2. Don’t overthink. Seriously. No one’s grading you (unless you’ve angered a goblin professor).

3. Set a timer. Try 10–20 minutes. More if the muse is feeling spicy.

4. Write like a maniac. Spelling? Grammar? Consistency? Pfft. You can edit later. This is about chaos-fueled creativity.

5. Twist it. Flip genres. Change POV. Make the prompt cry for mercy if you want.

6. Reuse it. Today it’s a flash fiction. Tomorrow it’s a D&D side quest. Next week? A novella. Who knows?

7. Have fun. If you’re not cackling, gasping, or yelling “plot twist!” at least once... try adding caffeine.

8. Be kind to your brain. It’s doing weird, wonderful things. Give it snacks.
