1. Pick a random name.

2. Write down the name and follow it with this “grabbed the car keys and closed the door quietly so no one would wake up.”
3. Next line write AND THEN
4. Next line write another action that your newly named character did. Don’t overthink this. Just move the story forward by one sentence that has action in it – no internal narrative, no dialog, no long-winded description.
5. Repeat Steps 3 & 4 until you have written 50 sentences of sequential action. The point is to exercise the pure storytelling muscle in your brain (hence the AND THEN) while allowing your imagination free rein.

Lucy grabbed the car keys amd closed the door quietly so no one would wake up. And then she jumped in her fathers car and drove to the river. and then she met her friend Todd, and then they rode on the raft and then they hit a rock and then Todd fell in the water and then Lucy screamed and then the raft hit Todd in the head and then he lost consciousness and then Lucy jumped in and then she grabbed Todds shirt and then she swam to shore with Todd and then she screamed at Todd to wake up and then she tried mouth to mouth resusitation, and then Todd finally began coughing and then Lucy hugged Todd and then Todd said he couldn't remember anything and then Lucy told him what happened and then Todd said his head hurt and then Lucy said they should go to the hospital. And then when Todd had enough strength they walked to the car and then Lucy drove Todd to the hospital, and then they waited in the hospital emergency room and then Todd threw up and then Lucy  had to clean it up and the a nurse took him to a room. and   then Todd layed down, and then the nurse asked what happened, and then  Lucy told the story, and then the Doctor came in and then they took xrays and then the Doctor told them that Todd had a concussion, and then Lucy took Todd home and then Todds parent s were thankful, but upset, and then Lucy left and then the Police stopped her and then asked her for her drivers license, and then Lucy told them she didn't have one because she was only 12, and then the police lectured her and then  they called her home and then her father came, and then he drove her home, and then he made her go straight to her bedroom and he would talk to her later and then Lucy went to the bedroom and them she took off her clothes, and then she took a shower and then she went to bed, and then she fell asleep and then her father woke her up and then he scolded her, and then she cried, and then he said she couldn't go out for a month, and then he left the room, and then Lucy continued to cry, and then her mom came in, and then she lectured Lucy, and then Lucy cried again.  She cried until she fell asleep.
