Story Premise Generator

Prompt Template

Generate {{count: 5}} unique story premises for a {{genre}} story.

For each premise, include:
- One-sentence hook (what makes this story unique?)
- Main character with a defining flaw
- Central conflict (internal and external)
- The stakes (what happens if they fail?)
- A twist or subversion of genre expectations

Tone preferences: {{tone: dark/hopeful/comedic/literary/pulpy}}
Setting preferences: {{setting: any/contemporary/historical/fantasy/sci-fi}}

Avoid: {{avoid: clichés to skip}}

Tips

• Mix and match elements from different premises
• The best stories often combine familiar elements in fresh ways
• Focus on the character flaw - it drives the internal conflict
