Good Adventures,

This week we're playing in the Roll-A-Prompt series again. This time, I'm joined by my co-author Lisa and our friend Kristina. I picked a random set of elements from the Genre Mashup Edition, we cut to write (so you don't have to be bored while no one is talking) then come back and read. It was lots of fun. If you'd like to play along, the prompt is below. Grab some dice, roll for your elements, and write. Want to share? Comment on our YouTube channel. 

The prompt we use today is from our Roll-A-Prompt Writing Journal Genre Mashup Edition

Even = MC is alone

Odd = Roll again for a companion 

1. Stand-up comedian

IF the MC is alone, add an object

Roll 1 Number

2. Embroidered slippers
3. Drone
4. Wedding ring
5. Bag of dirt
6. Syringe
