Announcing the May Trope Mayhem Prompt List for 2025!

May Trope Mayhem is a multi-fandom/original creation event open to writers, artists, and creators of all kinds! Our creators have shared their favorite tropes, and we’ve put together a list of 31, one per day through the month of May. We encourage creators to join us for this month of fun tropey mayhem.
Our goal is to promote motivation and help with habit building, so we’re encouraging authors to keep their ficlets under 1,000 words, artists to stick to making just a sketch, gif makers to only do a single image, etc., as applicable to whatever you’re making.

I have made bingo down the B and O columns of my 4-1-23 card for the Gothic Bingo fest , plus 3 additional fills.

Note that two fills span multiple prompts. One is based on the prompt structure itself using one of the optional squares:
"Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
Wednesday Addams
=Snap Twice=
Mummy

The other came from a specific cluster of prompts that someone requested:
"The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)
The Moors
Ruins
Beekeeping/Bees
Adults are Useless/Dangerous

B1 (Wednesday Addams) -- "Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
B2 (=Snap Twice= combine exactly two adjacent prompts) -- "Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
B3 (Mummy) -- "Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
B4 (Ruins) -- "The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)
B5 (Workings of the Mind) -- "Sucked Backwards into an Eddy" (Arts and Crafts America)

O1 (Art Studio) -- "The Imagination to Improvise" (Polychrome Heroics: Shiv)
O2 (Bully / Abuser) -- "Mermaids and Sailors (Quixotic Ideas)
O3 (Beekeeping / Bees) -- "The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)
O4 ("I don't need your help or your pity.") -- "Mrs. Opportunities, Ms. Nomers, and Miss Takes" (standalone)
O5 (Wild Bohemian Girl / Guy) -- "A Great Deal of Energy and Determination" (Polychrome Heroics: Marionettes and Finn Family)

I3 (Damsel / Gentleman in Distress) -- "Before You Can Love Me" (Polychrome Heroics: Iron Horses)
I4 (The Moors) -- "The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)

N1 (Adults Are Useless / Dangerous) -- -- "The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)


"The Qui to Everything" (Quixotic Ideas)
Valentines Bingo Card 2-1-23:
Dumortierite - Mental & Psychic Abilities

Worth mentioning is that Quixotic Ideas is a new fantasy series set in an analog of modern Earth called Quorth, where magic is a relatively common part of life.

[personal profile] singedsun is running a writing game called Anamnesis using Tarot cards as prompts.  It's not bingo, but I thought it might appeal to folks who like bingo prompts.

Some folks may be wondering if it's okay to mix bingo and NaNoWriMo.  Yes, it is!  

You can use any bingo card you have or make for your NaNoWriMo project.  Look on our Bingo Card Generator and you'll find many relevant prompt lists including things like:
Characterbuilding
Culturebuilding
Group Dynamics
Horror Tropes
Childhood Experiences
Desperate Siituations
Emotions
End of the World
Gentle Fiction
Plot Tropes
Problems That Can't Be Solved By Hitting
Setting Tropes
Themes
Time Periods
Worldbuilding

If you click 1x1 in the size settings, it gives you a single prompt.  Grid cards go from 2x2 to 5x5.  Put those three sizes together and you've covered November.  So you could choose a prompt for each day of the month if you're worried about getting stuck.

Also if you're doing NaNoWriMo and you want to gain new readers, or you're a reader looking for projects to follow, I'm running support posts on my blog where participants can post about their activities.
