Inspiration-boxes.
Dec. 22nd, 2009 06:57 pmThis is something I both was asked to do, and wanted to do. Some of you who are on my friends-list have already seen an entry I made some time ago in my personal journal, showing off these little inspiration boxes for drabble-writing. Since the idea seemed to be liked, I figured I would introduce it to you too and maybe it would help someone to get writing :)
The idea is simple. You fold two little paper boxes. Then you take words, or short quotes, and you write them down on little pieces of paper. Those papers you can squeeze into little balls and then play a little writing-lottery ;) First pick a pairing in one of the boxes, secondly pick a prompt-word from another box, then just write. It can be a traditional drabble of only 100 words, it can be a small ficlet or it can be a longer fic. Anything you want to do and anything the prompts inspire you to do. If you have a printer, you can even print out small pictures and add them in the midst of the prompt words ;) Anything goes!
( Let me show you an example. )
So, what I would like you to do now, is to make your own inspiration boxes :) No matter what your pairings are, no matter what style you write. This works for everything. If you want you can only make the prompt-box and leave out the pairing-box, working with whatever pairing seems to suit the prompt you get. It's all up to you! This is supposed to be fun and I hope you'll all enjoy doing it ;)
Write your drabbles and share them in comments below, comment on the drabbles others have written and let your inner fangirl(/boy) free! I encourage you to spam the entry as much as you wish. Go go!
