The term "story ideas" refers to potential narratives or plots that can be used as a basis for creating a written, audio-visual or performance piece. These ideas may originate from personal experiences, observations, research, imagination or inspiration from other sources such as books, movies, news articles or conversations with others. Story ideas can range from simple concepts to more detailed outlines that include characters, settings and plot points. They provide a starting point for writers, filmmakers, playwrights or performers to develop their work and bring it to life for an audience.
