Welcome to the next in an ongoing series of writing prompts in the Worldbuilding community !
I'm aiming to post one of these each Sunday. They aren't a replacement for the excellent daily prompts from @worldbuilding they're just an extra opportunity if you have a writing itch you want to scratch. 😀

The prompt this week is - The Seaside
*The seaside nowadays is a place where people go to relax, have a holiday, go on a day out, swim and do other watersports. In some places, it's a place where fishing boats are pulled up on the shore, and fishermen contribute to the local economy and food supply. But it wasn't always that way. For much of history, the seaside was a place of danger where raiders and even slavers came ashore. Tell me about the seaside in your setting ! What is it like, how do people think about it ? Is it a place where people go, or somewhere they shun ? *
Just to add a bit of spice to things, the two entries I most like (and are linked in comments to this post, so I can find them !) that are posted by midnight (GMT) next Saturday will each get a prize of one Hive SBI.
This link will take you to the FAQ where you can read more about Hive SBI - it's a project I thoroughly support because it gives both the donor and winner a steady trickle of passive income paid out in the form of upvotes on posts.
Guidelines
I stole these guidelines straight from @worldbuilding prompts (I hope that's okay !), I couldn't have written them any better myself....
