I’ve tried this out once and the story ended up pretty nice, anyways, use a song to inspire a story. There are a couple ways to do this:

use the first and last lyrics as the first and last line

Use all of the lyrics at some point in the story

Or another, use the lyrics as the prompt, and the feeling you get from it as the tone/mood

@RaspberryTea group

those do seem pretty good! So far I've used White by HANA, which was decent. I've almost used tripwire by YMIR. Lights by Ellie Goulding is by far my favorite song for this though.

I have two stories based on songs!

Poppy Ward was originally a Haikyuu fanfiction, based around the song Listen before I go by Billie Eilish. It's basically about a terminally ill teenager falling in love with someone, coming to terms with the guilt of that and death.

March To The Sea is based around the Twenty One Pilots song of the same name, but I changed the meaning up a bit. Its about a young boy stumbling across a cult in the woods behind his house, discovering that they intent to sacrifice a young boy to the God of the sea, and then divising q plan to save the kid.

Yes and no. As much as I detest this notion, they are similar in plot, but so is Finding Nemo and Taken. I like to think my story is different, and it will be, considering I've never read the fault in our stars

(would this chat be considered dead?? I'm dying of boredom, have writing motivation, have no writing inspiration, and I like using songs for inspiration.)
