I had an idea where a zombie rockstar resurrects the dead with a mystical guitar. A 'Return of the Living Dead' kind of deal.

Wow, there are a lot of valuable insights and opinions here. Thanks, guys. Maybe we just have fun with our writing and not worry too much. :cool:

TBH when people on the internet criticise movies or tv episodes for 'Cliches and tropes' I just think 'For god's sakes, just watch and enjoy!'. :sneaky:

Wow. Awards, eh? That's cool. Anyway, welcome! I am a mediocre writer, so, heh, be kind. :LOL:

I bottled out of the Exorcist quite early on. 😅 granted I was only a kid. Fine, a teenager! 😛 but it's as disturbing as shit, in my defence. To answer the question. Romance. Won't touch it. If it isn't action or supernatural-themed, or doesn't explore a character's dark past, then I won't...

What tricks do you emplore to avoid tropes and cliches? Like putting a werewolf on a spaceship? or having vampires in a futuristic world of flying cars and laser guns? Or having zombies possess the ability to perform sonnets? (Okay, that last one was a joke :LOL:).

Mercs was the first game I played - on Sega! Of course it was. I couldn't remember before! :rolleyes:

The Tiger Got Out: Everybody Run! 'Dude, Duck!' 'Where's The Duck? Ouch!' Man Orders Shots. Gets Shot Twice.

More that it can generate whatever you want it to. Granted the free basic only produces short vignettes - so it's literally like reading a scene rather than a novel. Plus when I first started using it my brain was generating like a hundred variations of tv show and movie crossover scenarios -...

Worcester Sauce Triggered The Zombie Apocalypse

I have used AI to produce stories for the sake of having something to read. And might use it to analyse my stories. But if I have an idea I want to do, then I do it myself.

I just see the image being doctored so that the guy's and the cat's heads the other way around. :ROFLMAO:

I am attempting to write a zombie story that is set in a city hit by a complete blackout - so mostly in darkness! And I'm trying to avoid 'showing' the zombies too much; just relying on sound, smell, and partial appearances (Like an arm thrashing through a gap in a barricade).

I know this is over a week old, but I would say open up different word files or get different sheets of paper, and do a page of each idea per day. You never know, you might land on one that you just want to keep writing! If you've already conquered this slump, which idea are you pursuing?
