<li>Rapid fire images (start writing/break through a block by just putting ten images down in ten minutes; we address the universal too much).<ol>

<li>Dust on electronics, untouched by clean cloth, disturbed only by unread mail; a mute accusation.</li>

<li>Cloud-dulled sunlight found its way through the tiniest of cracks in the styrofoam sheet standing in for real blinds.</li>

<li>Write a cumulative sentence together: “Arriving late, … to sit down at my desk …” — <em>Arriving late, after forgetting my coffee—now cold a fridge unplugged—in the rush of guilt from forgotten alarms, my clothes still damp having quickly grabbed them from the still-turning drying, I was desperate to escape the stifling conversation, prattling and monotone, of my dull-eyed coworkers, which was focused on weekend plans, how many inches of rain were expected, and the circuitous detail of their underdeveloped dreams about toe fungus.</em> — have fun and be ridiculous to hunt for opportunities, then go back and revise, overwrite and pare down.</li>

<li>Bad: “his legs were thick like tree-trunks”</li>

<li>Good: imbue with something much larger. “His legs were thick like he had dedicated himself to becoming a statue, some solid object people admired and pointed toward”</li>
