I still have not written any stories based on the many fun and intriguing prompts in this book, but I still keep it on top of my stack of books beside my bed.
Perfect for anyone who wants to write stories but needs ideas, this book not only has them, it also tells you different ways of playing with the ideas it provides!
Until I get around to using it for the purpose for which it was created, it's a lot of fun to flip through at night, just before I fall asleep -- I like to think it gives me ideas to dream about. And considering that a lot of my story ideas have come to me in my dreams, perhaps I WILL soon be using this book to write another book of my own!
Highly recommended, and a lot of fun.
