So, on a whim today, I got this book from the library, The Write-Brain Workbook: 366 Exercises to Liberate Your Writing. I've got a few more coming through ILL like it, as well. And I'm looking through this promptyprompt book, thinking, "Hey, I've got writery-type friends who might be interested in some of the, um, ~interesting promptyprompts." It actually did go kind of like that... What can I say, I'm tired.

Anyway! The point of this rambling is that I'm going to share prompts and writing exercises and shit! \o/


Pick the one word that most appeals to you:
Alabama Banister Carousel Diesel Exorcist

Pick another word that appeals to you:
Flatulence Garage Harried Insensitive Jambalaya

Pick one more word that appeals to you:
Keepsake Lamb Massage Nonsense Oriole


Now use these three words in a story, 500 words minimum.


*cracks whip* Now write!!! (The words I picked were carousel, jambalaya, and lamb, btw. I'm thinking zombies...)
