Well, sometimes the characters in the original work have such strong chemistry that it just makes me want to explore their relationship in a more... intense way. And the unique settings and stories in the original also give a lot of room for creating such fanfiction.
My inspiration came from a dream I had. It was a very vivid dream with amazing characters and a strange but fascinating plot. So I decided to turn it into a story.
The idea of over - obsessed fans likely inspired Eminem. There were probably real - life experiences of extreme fans that he had encountered or heard about.
I was inspired by the rich world of Harry Potter. There were so many characters and stories that could be further explored. I really wanted to create my own story within that magical universe.
Well, for me, it was a really intense dream I had. In the dream, I was in this strange, dark world that was a mix of all my favorite fictional universes. When I woke up, I just felt this urge to put it all into a fanfiction.
You can get inspired by reading a lot of different books and observing things around you. Maybe a beautiful landscape or an interesting person could spark your creativity.
To write a story inspired by TV Tropes, begin by getting to know the various tropes. You can search for tropes based on the type of story you want to tell. If it's a comedy, look for 'Comical Overreacting' type of tropes. Once you've selected some tropes, think about how they can be integrated into a coherent narrative. You might have a 'Rebellious Teen' trope as a character, and then build a story around their conflicts and growth. As you write, be creative and don't be too rigid in following the tropes, but use them as a springboard for your ideas.
