seventh sanctum
found this groovy page :
http://www.seventhsanctum.com/generate.php?Genname=quickstory
if you're fighting the old writer's block then this site might help , is a story idea generator , and by clicking the button over and over ; is possible to come up with some bizarre concoctions ; with a bit of imagination and thought , you could come up with a decent story I reckon.
It came up with this for me , which I'm gonna have a go at :
The theme of this story: weird horror. The main character: weak musician. The start of the story: longing. The end of the story: flashback.
if anyone's into comedy...
The theme of this story: tragic romance. The main characters: boastful traitor and humble exorcist. The start of the story: surrender. The end of the story: natural disaster.
The theme of this story: light-hearted action. The main characters: stressed comic and poor computer programmer. The start of the story: lecture. The end of the story: treason.
The theme of this story: dark comedy. The main character: clumsy bandit. The major event of the story: flashback.
The theme of this story: dark quest. The main characters: grim exorcist and short-tempered assisant. The start of the story: education. The end of the story: apocalyptic event.
The theme of this story: romantic relationship. The main characters: lonely singer and acrobatic treasure-hunter. The major event of the story: treason.
The theme of this story: metaphorical comedy. The main characters: disillusioned noble and misunderstood pedlar. The major event of the story: conversion.
The theme of this story: serious thriller. The main characters: cowardly rogue and unfriendly monk. The start of the story: critical injury. The end of the story: inheritance.
The theme of this story: metaphorical crime. The main characters: insane dancer and generous pharmacist. The start of the story: addiction. The end of the story: miscommunication.
I rather like the what if generator
...Ghengis Khan had access to holographic entertainment?
...the Spanish Inquisition involved the telephone?
...Lewis Carrol switched places with Ronald Regan?
I also like the lovecraftian name generator, but that might just be me
