Take fifteen minutes and create. No rules. No erasing. Just simply go with the first things that come to mind.
List your favorite words, at least five of them. Now come up with five other ways to say each word. Use those words… all of them.
Make use of your horoscope for today (even if you don’t believe in that stuff). Create something with what it tells you.
Demonstrate opposites. Do this in poetic, prose, or visual form. The more polar opposite you can get the better.
Create something based on a fictional/fairy tale/movie character that you didn’t like when you were younger.
Exercise your creativity and your imagination!
Pick up your iPod and hit shuffle… or do that in iTunes or whatever media player you use… or turn on the radio.
That song… the first one you hear…
How does it make you feel? What does it make you think of?
Take a standard set of instructions on how to do something or how to work an item and turn it into something more creative. Write a poem. Draw or paint a picture. Begin a short story. Free Write what it makes you think of or feel. Begin a memoir piece around those instructions. BE CREATIVE!

Write about a smile, and how thankful you are for it. Write about more than one if you are so moved. If you are a fiction writer, write about a smile that changes your character’s life or outlook.
Happy Writing!
