Silly and cute is fun to write. I'm hoping mine is like that too as I'm only writing this year as practice and for fun instead of writing something I hope to publish one day.

We had an editor come last week and present a NaNo Prep workshop. She had us brainstorm ideas by:

1. writing down two words that described our story or character
2. break each of those words into 2 related words
3. break each of those words into 2 more related words for a total of 8
4. If you want, break each of those down into 2 more related words - 16 total words
5. Combine 2 different words until you find pairs that inspire you
6. Free write about those 2 words for 3 minutes and see what you get.

It was a fun exercise and it helped to flesh out my main character a little bit.
