When I started with Perchance I used to use those one sentence story lines as my prompt and refine it from there ( I didn't really understand prompts much back then, all those few weeks ago). These days it's a bit different, most of the time I'll have a simple idea and see what comes out of it. Sometimes the picture trigger a short narrative to accompany it. A few times I've tried to play out a scene, I'll start with a basic scene setting prompt, do a few "generates" to see if I like the results, then gradually change the prompt to progress "scene" to where I want it to end. Ideally I'm trying to get images to create a sequence, but SD changes apparel, appearance and setting each time, which makes it difficult. I haven't really tried to put a sequence together yet, but I think I now have one where it might be possible. Now I'm wondering if I should try to write a narrative to go with it, that'll be a new venture for me! I'm with you on feedback and responses, I find they trigger quite a lot of my ideas. Even someone saying "I like that one" makes me think "worth doing a few more like that then". It is very difficult to keep the ideas flowing if you are working in a vacuum.
Everyone has their preferences and I don't even like the same stuff all the time. Thanks.
