Topic 1-

Your character is orphaned.
Pop quiz: What do Harry Potter, Superman, Cosette from Les Miserables, Bambi,
David Copperfield, Frodo Baggins, Tom Sawyer, Santiago from The Alchemist,
Arya Stark, and Ram Mohammed Thomas from Slumdog Millionaire have in
common? Beside the fact that they are characters in some of the bestselling stories
of all time?
They’re all orphans.
Writers love orphans, and statistically they appear in stories far more often than in
the world. Orphans are uniquely vulnerable, and as such, they have the most
potential for growth. It’s time for you to write a story about one.

Topic 2-

A character living in poverty comes into an unexpected fortune.

This storyline is one of the seven basic plots, and it describes the plot of some of
our favorites stories, including Cinderella, Aladdin, Great Expectations, several of
the parables of Jesus, and even Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
However, not all fortunes are good. As Tolstoy’s short story How Much Land Does
a Man Need? and John Steinbeck’s novella The Pearl illustrate, sometimes
discovering a fortune will destroy your life.

All the best!!
