NanoWriMo is almost here, I don't really have a story idea this year. :( My dad threw out an idea that I just might go with (which I'm jealously guarding). It has unusual potential. The only thing I can think of without any suggestions is to go to
TV Tropes, pick out three tropes and use them in a story.
I'm using the annual
spook_me challenge as a warm up with some success. I'm only writing for three fandoms this year. And I don't think I'm going to kill of anyone in a horrible way this year. Oh well. ;)
On slightly related note, today I realized why I like Adventure Time. It is like a series of short stories or drabbles that form a bigger story; they stand alone but are further appreciated when more episodes are seen.
