It’s time for another mix-and-match. One way to spur creativity is to combine unlikely or random images, words, or concepts and use them as a springboard to start writing. You can free-write using the combination as an inspiration; find a way to include the combination directly in your writing; begin a story based on the combination; etc. Today, pick one of the following combinations of words and start with it:
- minute, tool, sense
- draft, tooth
- cheating, morning, beyond
- guarantee, subject, unconventional
- people, manual, chill
Just let go of your thoughts and allow them to make unusual mental leaps, combining the words in new ways. You might even free-write a list of ideas to start with, then pick your favorite and run with it.
