Alan's Creativity Challenges 2003-18
Combing Headlines for FunBack to headlines like in 2003-15.
This week let's work on our verbal-written creativity having fun re-writing
headlines by combining several of them together.
Take some time to gather several headlines from a mix of sources. Copy them and
put them in piles determined by where they came from: newspapers, magazines, type
of magazines, television, radio, etc.
MONDAY
Pick up your collection of newspaper headlines and combine 2 or 3 of them randomly
and write several new ones.
TUESDAY
Pick up your collection of magazine headlines and combine 2 or 3 of them randomly
and write several new ones.
WEDNESDAY
Pick up your collection of radio headlines and combine 2 or 3 of them randomly and
write several new ones.
THURSDAY
Pick up your collection of television headlines and combine 2 or 3 of them
randomly and write several new ones.
FRIDAY
Pick up a random collection of one from each of your collections of headlines and
combine 2 or 3 of them randomly and write several new ones.
The goal is to practice generating creative thinking through the use of words,
spacing, punctuation, capitalization, etc.
Please send examples of your results. I'll collect them and share them all later
with your approval.
Have a fun week by tremendously support of the creativity that surrounds you.
