Troubadour
I don't have a story or plot in mind, so I try to create a world first, then write a story that works around it. I'm not making much progress, because I think my imagination is stifled. Because if you make a story that takes place in the real world, you more or less build that story around how the real world works, because you're intimately familiar with the "rules" of the real world.
I think if I were to write a story, instead of writing the "most dramatic" story, with lots of "shocking plot twists" and the like, I would probably write something like a slice-of-life, or maybe something that explores philosphical themes, something subtle like that. Because real life is not necessarily a super dramatic tale. (I'm not good at coming up with a story either.)
I think philosphical themes and a fantasy world would be compatible with each other, because you could explore themes that you could relate to, but contrast with the real world.
What do you think?
