What creatures fascinate you? What places do you want to visit? What surprises you or scares you? All of these questions help create stories.

A game we have been playing recently is taking turns telling the same story. Someone starts with a character and setting and passes the story off when just enough detail has been given. The next person might talk about what the character likes to do, what he sees or even a problem. Then the 3rd person can take this information into another direction.

You can quit the story at any point. We have taken one turn each with the 4 of us or taken many. We might take turns by being next to the person talking or being chosen by the last person talking. No specific rules. Just exploring a fun way to make up stories together. Lots of smiles. Lots of laughs. Try it!
