Why did I start a podcast out of sheer desperation? Why do I play a surrealist word game to create #writingprompts to inspire me, and my fellow writers? What do the Socks of Destiny look like, exactly?😲 Find out more in this interview https://t.co/cAbTpY1RVO (+ see pod🔗below)

@ByYourBedside I read a curious theory about why A Christmas Carol works so well as a story. It's a sort of "flip" of the original Christmas story: from a tale about the birth of a baby, to a tale of the rebirth of an old man. 🤔😆

We're taking a break! We might be a bit less responsive over the new two weeks as we all take a bit of time to switch off over Christmas. There will still be posts going up, but we won't be checking in regularly - we'll be back in January though!

What happens when you play Exquisite Corpse in person? Weird ideas. Serendipity. Laughs. Stories! Tune in to tomorrow's Brainstoryum show to hear the results of a game with my work colleagues at Xmas (who didn't know I'm a writer who uses these for prompts 😁). Bookmark the🔗⬇️

The world blurs into bright circles, and she walks the wooden boards with an umbrella held like a fragile promise. Do you think she’s listening for something only the heart can hear? She moves through it with a kind of calm courage, her umbrella tilted like a question to the sky.

Feeling "Meh" about goal setting? The Dec issue of Indie Writers Voice gathers ideas & perspectives from several authors (incl yours truly!) around planning and goal setting. My hot take: Christmas & New Year are for relaxing! So why not make your goals official now 😉 #writing
Read or download here: https://t.co/zyfSn4r1NN Includes a goal setting template for #indieauthors to record their plans for 2026.

Writers, would you like a shout-out on the next Brainstoryum #podcast ? Can YOU think of a story idea or character idea based on: "the mealy-mouthed box"? 📦 (A box that's trying to speak & can't get its words out? Or a creature in that box? Something else?) #writingprompt
