Day one of the challenge and I have decided my theme… A free throw of the dice will give me a start and I must write something inspired by it. But these are no ordinary dice folks. Let me introduce Rory’s Story Cubes, a devilishly simple, beautifully executed game or tool depending on what you want to use it for. Aaaaand here is today’s throw. From Story Cubes Voyages edition.
Nine cubes. Nine pictures. So many ways to read them. Let’s see where they take us..
Finding a way to start your story can be as elusive as some HOLY GRAIL. There is no magic MAP to decipher , no trail to follow. You must simply put your THINKING CAP on on and let your mind take you where it will. Everyone has a different way of attacking the writing process. Some lock themselves away in a den or an office – a modern day protected space or CAVE. While some folks need perfect silence to work some people like to listen to MUSIC that helps them evoke an atmosphere. It can be FRUSTRATING when the COGS won’t fit into place but perseverance leads to the literary NIRVANA. Stick with it and you will find your CROCK OF GOLD.

I’ve never heard of story cubes before. What a great tool for breaking out of a writing slump or generating some random inspiration. I’ll be checking those out! Excellent start to the challenge!
excellent 🙂
I love your approach to the A-Z theme with the pictogram dice. It looks like a lot of fun and probably provides tons of inspiration!
