This is a great exercise to get you started on a story (or even a novel).

It's quick to do, but will get your narrative going on multiple levels at once.

You are the most stereotypical looking writer/artist I’ve ever seen. It’s awesome! Thank you for your tips. Very useful.

Great tips. A conversation between (A) and (B) about (C) and (D).

I like this HEAPS!! Thanks so much! This is one of those super easy tricks where the logic behind it is simple enough for school children to grasp, but its actually such a big brain 200iq technique when used with intent and done frequently

This sounds really useful. I think I inadvertently did something similar once for a short story exercise. I liked my C and D characters so much that they ended up being the main characters for a short novel. It wasn't good in the end, but the initial prompt definitely got me curious about C and D (and E, in that case) and their relationship. Nice video!
