Fiction Writing Prompts for New Authors

I'm picturing you as a fairly new author. Maybe you've published in the past, maybe not. It's possible that you've written a great deal or perhaps writing is something that you've aspired to do but never really gotten into. It's even possible that you're one of the masters in the field and you're looking for an idea to turn into the next best-seller. Wherever you are, that's great, we can always use more books. For every book that you see published, even if it didn't appeal to you, there are people who felt that the book spoke to them; helped them sort through their lives and let them think more deeply about what was possible. Fiction Writing Prompts for New Authors lists some themes from Fiction, Science Fiction, Gothic Horror and Cosmic Horror among others and explores some plots for each as well as some suggestions on how these plots should best be used.
