A-Z Challenge 2019 Theme

Lets start this year’s A-Z Challenge off right.

I am going to try something wildly different. It might be a lot of work, it might not be (it probably will be).

Early this year I bought a set of dice in a game shop called Rory’s Story Cubes. I’ve been wanting to try them out and haven’t had a chance yet. A-Z challenge seems like the best place to try them out! This plan is fool proof! Nothing can go wrong what-so-ever!

Rory’s Story Cubes. They come in many flavors!

How am I going to approach this?

  1. Roll the dice.
  2. Determine what the pictures mean. (I’ve got some lee-way)
  3. Write them down for the day’s blog
  4. Use thesaurus.com to find something close to what I’ve decided to what the pictures mean for the letter of that day.
  5. Pick six of the new words. This gives me room as some of the words may not have decent letter specific words.
  6. Use those six words relating to the day’s letter in a short story of about 500 words.

Let’s see this in practice! (I’ll use Day ‘A’ because that’s what I’ve done so far)

I rolled:

  • block L
  • bridge
  • electricity
  • smile
  • turtle
  • record
  • speech bubble
  • parachute
  • frown

Changed into:

  • electricity -> aether
  • bridge -> arch
  • turtle -> arrau turtle
  • record -> archive
  • speech -> accent
  • block -> arrest

And then I write 500 words. Should be interesting.
