Just compared a vague 'write a mystery' prompt to one about a detective who can't solve a case because they're the ghost of the victim.
The second one gave me a full scene in 20 minutes, while the first left me staring at a blank page. What's the most specific prompt that's ever worked for you?

Actually used "a retired MMA fighter turned PI gets hired to find a missing prize fighter from the 90s" and had a full chapter outline in under an hour. The specific detail gave me a character voice, a setting, and a conflict all at once, no guesswork. Vague prompts just make me scroll through junk, clear specific ones actually get me writing instead of overthinking.
