Daily Creativity #50: Change a Key Word in Your Story
What if a misplaced letter in a word changes everything? A story about someone who wins a million dollars would be very different if they actually won a million collars; a painting of a world under the sea would look very different to a world inside a pea. Play around with a key word in one of your ideas and see what happens to your story or your artwork!
Daily Creativity #49: Write about Your Past Self
Write about your past self–your babyhood, toddlerhood, or younger childhood. Think about what it would be like to be that age. You can work from memories, ask people about their memories, or make stuff up. Anything goes.
