I can't think of a good enough conflict. Basically, i'm currently trying to write two stories. The first one is very psychedelic, a sort of follow-up to a short-story i once wrote in high school. Problem here is that unlike the original story, which i felt strongly inspired about, and wrote in one sitting, the follow-up has only a basic outline of the setting, characters and main factions (as well as a few details here and there) but i can't think of a good enough sequence of events/ encounters/ adventures for the protagonist. The original - called 'Dadasopher' - followed a mysterious man as he travelled the world in search of enlightenment, and how he finally succeeded in his search, and become a god-like figure. The follow-up is supposed to explore more of the world, and to show how the man's influence fell upon it (directly or indirectly) through the eyes of a new protagonist and his followers. My idea here is to provide a kind of allegory of our own world but without using actual names and locations. The second is more of an adventure story set on a faraway moon in the relatively-far future when humanity mastered interstellar travel and outworld colonization. I'm thinking of writing the first installment (prologue, if you will) as a kind of planetary romance, and the follow-ups to be through the eyes of a local, or locals (if i decide, for some reason, to divide it into several stories, each describing the various societies present), set even farther into the future - the reason for this is because the guy from the prologue changes the world completely, so society starts from scratch in his own image. This story i want to be a "simple" fantasy-adventure on a faraway world, no allegories or anything, just a story with rule-of-cool incroppings, but obviously not a SW rip-off But again, the problem is that i have an outline of the world, but no idea on the actual events and adventures. It's kinda silly, i know 'How can you write an adventure story, if you can't think of any adventures? You should quit while you're ahead!', but that's why i'm asking for here, some advice on such writer's block from peops who also write, even if only as a hobby. You'll probably want some more info on the settings before suggesting anything, and if so, tell me about it. Any help is appreciated
