We’ll stop at the first part of the journey when Clint made the front page of every newspaper as the highest performing NASA recruit in history, getting 100% in his entrance exams.
And he did it every night until Clint was ready to embark on the path that would change the destiny of humanity. You just need a little help with the basics first.” Einstein then went on to demystify astrophysics and explain cosmology. You are the visionary who will lead mankind to the stars. I’m here to help you achieve your destiny. He wasn’t sure if it was real or a fever dream from the out-of-date cheese he’d had on his burger earlier that night. But I won’t know for sure until my earthly work is done. But before he even touched it, it pinged across the room and a ghost came flying out. He undid half a dozen rusting screws and went to remove the bottom panel. Clint was quite handy with a screwdriver, so he decided to try to fix it. One night, while trying to suck up some fries from underneath a table, the vacuum started to make some strange sounds and spluttered to a halt.That meant the carpets were threadbare, the brooms only had a few bristles left and the vacuum cleaner was a beaten-up contraption from the 1950s. MegaBurger was run by a skinflint who liked to cut corners. As well as flipping burgers for people with late-night munchies, he also had to wipe down the tables and clean the floors. His shift ended at 7am which meant he was often the only one in the burger joint at night.Clint hadn’t done well enough in his high school exams to get into astronaut training, so he’d taken a job at his local MegaBurger drive-through while he brushed up on his astrophysics. This is the story of Clint Wayne and how he became the most famous boy in North Dakota.Imagine I was dealt these dice (I don’t need to imagine because I just have been):
Try different strategies to see what works best for you.īut let me give you an example. Or you may want to be more strategic and work out the ending first, using the dice to work out how you’re going to get to your big climax. You may just want to dive in as soon as you see them, working from left to right as you try to incorporate each image into your yarn. The job of the dice is not necessarily to provide you with literal objects to work with but concepts to nudge your thinking in fresh directions. For example, a slice of pizza could represent food in general, cutting a slice out of something, Italy, gooiness, a chef and a heap of other more obscure things. You can use the dice metaphorically or as representations of other concepts. You also don’t need to take the image literally. I recommend you try to work with the order they appear on the screen but if you’re finding it tough, you can do some swapsies. Your job is quite simply to turn these prompts into a story.
