1) Pick a subject (it can be anything)
2) Write seven sentences but you can't repeat any word
3) Once you've done seven sentences jumble up the words to create new sentences, don't think about it, do it at complete random.
This is what I came up with
Subject; Piano
First seven sentences;
The white keys thumped upon to release a feeling.
Heavy random sounds fill up.
Musicians heart becoming audible.
Breathless audiences anticipating.
Traditional but never out fashioned.
Delicate, heavy and glossy.
Music, melody, melancholy?
Piano I am.
Seven jumbled sentences;
Release keys feeling white a upon the thumped.
Up heavy random fill sounds.
Becoming audible musicians heart.
audiences breathless anticipating.
But out fashioned never traditional.
heavy and glossy delicate.
music melancholy? melody.
Am I piano.
___
It was completely random, and turns out I liked it. You're probably wondering what the point is, well the point is to forget the rules. From a young age we are taught and told rules, with writing and how things should be. Sometimes you need to put the rules to the back of your mind, and allow yourself to create. We are our own critique, we are constantly punching holes in our own work, and when writing and creating you need to turn that off and allow yourself to purely create. This is just one technique you can use. I hope this is helpful to you as much as it is to me.
