So today we're gonna talk about things that annoy us (What else is new) Book Tropes and Cliches and the best ways authors have avoided them.

Also, we didn't read any more Out of The Silent Planet sry. But we do have new Writing Prompts!!

Stephen's Prompt: Tell me about a normal event from a non-human pov (inanimate object, animal, alien, fairy, demon etc) in a way that makes it bizarre (humerus or horrifying) don't explain the event or what you the pov character are but give enough context for me to guess.

Joel's Prompt: Write from the perspective of an AI tasked with creating paperclips as they slowly realize they are destroying the world that created them.
