Thread: Flicking the dictionary open!

When I was a child, I would be asked to write a story. I always used to get A grades - not because I was specially creative but I had a knack of writing stories.

I'd get a dictionary and randomly open it at different pages, selecting any words and writing them down. When I had about 60 words, I'd write a story using them. Because they were randomly selected, the story would on each occasion take a different slant. And I was always praised for using new, and different, words.

I'd sometimes read my stories back and think I'd never have been able to do that without my technique! Here's a challenge to you; pick 60 words at random from a dicitonary and write a short story using those words. See what turns out! Good luck!

Never hurt anyone in trying *goes to find a dictionary*
