Sketch what you think you will look like when you’re eighty years old.
Set a timer for 45 minutes and draw a portrait of your pet or a favorite toy looking directly at you. (You might need to use a photo of your pet as they probably won’t stay still that long!)
Take a photo of a wild animal in motion.
Come up with an annoying habit and write about a world where this is a good thing! Maybe you don’t like it when people pick their noses. Why not write about a world where all the cool kids pick their noses!
Take a photo where the subject seems out of place or breaks a pattern (for example, a daffodil in a field of daisies).
Write about something shocking happening to a normal person. This could be something great (like winning the lottery) or something not-so-great (like finding out you’re about to die).
Write about a pair of best friends.
Write about a life-changing event in a character’s life. This could be ordinary, magical, or anywhere in between—just make it something important to your protagonist.
Write a story about a character with your dream job, but give it a fantasy twist. For example, if you want to be a veterinarian, maybe your character is a veterinarian for magical creatures!
Write a story set in medieval times.
