Roll-an-Idea

I've often thought it would be useful to have somewhere that you could go to find an idea for your next story, poem or article. A quick search of Writing.com's tools gave me some inspiration to create just such a place: the Roll-an-Idea.

The general idea is to use the Virtual Dice to choose a noun from the list below, and then have to write a story, poem, article or any other kind of item you choose, using that noun as the inspiration.

Please add nouns to the list if you so wish, but keep in mind the rating I have set for this item: if you post something inappropriate I will delete it and send my invisible monkeys after your brains. So be warned Pthb

How it works: You count the number of nouns in the list, then go to the Virtual Dice and roll, setting the parameters so that it won't roll a number higher than the total number of nouns. Come back here and find the noun that corresponds to the number you rolled, and start writing!

Good luck!
