My friend Rima had this odd-seeming game on her facebook page. I had a few minutes to kill while waiting for my editor to call me for a phone meeting, so I tried it -- and found it not just occasionally hilarious and weirdly appropriate for me -- but potentially useful if I took the answers as NOT pertaining to me ME, but rather to my current narrator...
So here I will share it with you, for your own amusement or as a very interesting way to force your writing mind WAY outside-the-box with your current character(s).
Please let me know how it goes for you -- and if you want to be entered into the GET A FREE BOOK drawing, happening NEXT WEEK, you can post your responses here and make sure to indicate if you would rather be trying to win a FREE new signed and personalized copy of JUSTIN CASE or BRILLIANT with your response.
And, have fun with it -- tell the truth!
1. Put your iTunes on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.

4. Tag 10 friends who might enjoy doing the same as well as the person you got the same from.

I'd play if I had an iPod, but alas I do not. Tears are falling from heaven for me even as we speak of this so I will just do the doobly-doo for JUSTIN CASE to ensure I'm put in his raffle (even though I'm serious! Brilliant would have been brillant too!). I love these exercises and have been using them when I'm at a loss for words. Maybe I'll tune into Pandora and see what they play for each question. It's a thought!
