Pick a category, and go wild

And honestly, I kinda just take the first thing that pops up, aha. In my case "Dolly Platt, the Zombie" is enough to get me to write something. Just take something and roll, don't reread.

Like.. I wanna write something.. But the writers block. It just isn't funny anymore ;-;

I can write like.. 3 pharagraphs of something, then decide its not good enough and erase it all. I've done this 3 times in the past hour.

yeah just. Don't erase it. Keep it. Literally the best way to get out is to just write, keep your mind flowing. Do NOT think. The purpose of the exercise is to find your muse and a feel for it, so that when you DO write, it won't feel as bad.

That being said, I know all my muses well enough that I never get a block.

That reminds me of something I did last year (again, in my awesome language arts class..) called Don't think write. We would just basically not think- and write. You HAD to write the entire 10 minutes, even if it was just like "The desk is wiggly. I like watermelon. Puppies are cute, oh I once saw a puppy.."
the purpose was to get our ideas flowing, then we would underline everything good and choose a good story topic :P

Evelyn Peterson was thinking about Dean Russell again. Dean was an intuitive sunlight with soft fingers and beautiful legs.

Evelyn walked over to the window and reflected on her deprived surroundings. She had always hated death trap Highschool with its loose, low Lockers. It was a place that encouraged her tendency to feel lonely.

Then she saw something in the distance, or rather someone. It was the an intuitive figure of Dean Russell.

Evelyn gulped. She glanced at her own reflection. She was a hopeful, patient, tea drinker with skinny fingers and lanky legs. Her friends saw her as a foolish, funny fox. Once, she had even made a cup of tea for a long bird.

But not even a hopeful person who had once made a cup of tea for a long bird, was prepared for what Dean had in store today.

The clouds danced like thinking birds, making Evelyn concerned. Evelyn grabbed a peculiar sketchbook that had been strewn nearby; she massaged it with her fingers.

As Evelyn stepped outside and Dean came closer, she could see the wet glint in his eye.

Dean gazed with the affection of 4904 self-concious loose lizards. He said, in hushed tones, "I love you and I want Love."

Evelyn looked back, even more concerned and still fingering the peculiar sketchbook. "Dean, just... go away," she replied.

They looked at each other with unstable feelings, like two clear, clever cats shouting at a very quiet class, which had indie music playing in the background and two remarkable uncles sleeping to the beat.

Evelyn studied Dean's soft fingers and beautiful legs. Eventually, she took a deep breath. "I'm sorry," began Evelyn in apologetic tones, "but I don't feel the same way, and I never will. I just don't love you Dean."

Dean looked anxious, his emotions raw like a raspy, robust razor.

Evelyn could actually hear Dean's emotions shatter into 5201 pieces. Then the intuitive sunlight hurried away into the distance.

Not even a cup of tea would calm Evelyn's nerves tonight.


I just generated one of those short story thingies -- this made my day hahahah!
Perhaps someday the revelation will burst in upon me and I will see
the other side of this monumental grotesque joke. And then I’ll laugh.
And then I’ll know what life is.

I've generated two so far, both were completely hilarious, but I deleted them, so I can't share them here. Also, I just had a great idea: putting completely different things in the spaces than what they ask for. I'll post that once I make it.

Just sitting here angrily playing my ukulele. Trying to come up with a plot or main base. I like to write about my fandoms, but lately I've been stuck...
