Training the Mind to be Receptive to Story Ideas

To write, you need ideas. But you also need ideas for how to develop those ideas. While it's true that ideas are everywhere, writers benefit from strategies of idea recognition and idea development. This tutorial will introduce you to several idea-generating and idea-developing strategies that will help you become a productive and prolific writer.

This tutorial is taught by Fred White, Ph.D., professor emeritus at Santa Clara University. Fred has taught courses in writing and literature for nearly forty years. In 1996, he won the Louis and Dorina Brutocao Award for Teaching Excellence. The author of several books on writing and literary criticism, Fred's most recent book is Where Do You Get Your Ideas? A Writer's Guide to Transforming Notions into Narratives.

This 29-minute tutorial video focuses on ‘idea-getting' and ‘idea-developing' strategies:

  • How to generate story ideas by becoming a keen observer of people
  • Finding story ideas in the natural world
  • Forming the idea-getting habit
  • The importance of being both an idea fisher and an idea factory
  • Becoming a ‚Äúmaster chef" of story ideas

This tutorial will inspire your ideas to flow freely!

{The strategies presented in this tutorial are not covered in Fred White's book Where Do You Get Your Ideas? A Writer's Guide to Transforming Notions into Narratives,this tutorial covers additional strategies. We highly recommend combining this tutorial with the book to pull back the curtain on the magic of remarkable idea generation.}

Grab one of these for some relaxing coloring therapy!
Format: Paperback
such an adorable coloring book! I would recommend this for adults who like to color as well as children. Coloring pages are cute, easy pictures to color -nothing complicated. Everything is large enough to color easily. I look forward to sitting down with this coloring book and getting some stress-free time coloring.

Charming Coloring Book — Fun for All Ages
Format: Paperback
This coloring book has quickly become a favorite in our house! The illustrations are adorable and relaxing, making it just as enjoyable for adults as it is for kids. My daughter and I have spent hours coloring together, and it’s been a great way to unwind after school or on quiet weekend afternoons. What I love most is how versatile it feels — the designs range from simple and playful to more detailed, so everyone finds pages that match their mood and skill level. It’s also a fun way to keep little hands engaged without screens. Whether you’re looking for a creative activity to share with your kids or a gentle, artistic escape for yourself, this coloring book delivers plenty of charm and enjoyment. The only reason giving 4 stars is because of the price. Although the book is great, I do not think it is worth almost $10.

Excellent Price & Function!
Size: No Size, Style: 4V Screwdriver_Twist 2.0 2pc Set
An excellent power screwdriver for assembly work where high torque is not needed. I haven't stripped any screw threads yet. The battery lockout feature is nice especially if it's bumping around in a tool box. It feels good and the switch works good too. The battery indicator LEDs work good too. The adjustable angle on the end works good too. Watching it turn through the clear windows is a neat function too. It works better than the Ryobi screwdriver it replaced. The torque is good without having too much torque for lighter work. It looks nice and feels of really good quality. The battery life appears to be good as well. I would buy it again when needed. Excellent price!
