— Write a modern retelling of a myth or fairytale. Try rewriting Robin Hood or the Three Little Pigs!
— Look around Pinterest for the weirdest piece of art you can find, then write a story about it.
— Write a story from the POV of your favorite toy or stuffed animal. Think Toy Story! Is your favorite toy heroic like Woody and Buzz? What adventures does it go...
— Take a photo where the subject is blurry. It could be a portrait of a flower blowing in the wind or a soccer ball flying through the air.
— Write a story where the main character investigates if self-playing pianos truly are self-playing.
— Draw your pet (or a friend’s pet) as a fantasy creature.
— Write a story based on one of your favorite songs. Include the title of the song at the top of your submission.
— Make a reading list for your favorite character. Do they like fantasy, sci-fi, or cozy mysteries? The books don’t even have to exist. Try making up your own titles!
— Create a soundtrack for a short story, then (working backwards) write the story to fit the soundtrack.
— Invent a sport (it doesn’t have to be realistic). Write a handbook with rules/instructions, and draw an example of a team’s uniform.
