Prompts
- In 1982, 5,837 couples belonging to the Unification Church were married in one mass wedding. Most had been chosen for each other by the Church. It is several years on from this. Write about where one or more of those couples might be today. Did they stay married? Did they stay in the church? What happened if one half of the couple stopped believing? Or if both the couple left the church, what did their neighbours and friends, who'd married along with them, then do?
- Winnie The Pooh was published in 1926. Either write a completely new Winnie the Pooh story or a story based on your own childhood toys (or those of your children if you have any).
- "It may take two people to make a really beautiful mistake." ee cummings
- In 1987, a man who'd failed to make contact with a fellow smuggler, flushed 52 bars of gold down an airline toilet. Write a story featuring a toilet in an aeroplane.
- "Dad, can I borrow the space ship tonight?"

Character
Traits
- Success and fame possible in science or the arts, both subjects they have a great interest in.
- Tireless researchers with a fascination for nature's secrets - so they may be especially attracted to chemistry, medicine, astronomy or psychology. As worshippers of knowledge, they can make significant discoveries.
- Their curiosity is not necessarily linked to this world alone, so there may be an interest in spirituality, alchemy or the occult.
- Law, real estate, literature, theatre, art or exploration are other fields they may enter.
- Particularly good at analysing and cataloguing their discoveries. Pay great attention to detail.
- They are organised, but a law unto themselves. Others unlikely to understand their systems!
- Restless and spontaneous with a love of travel, especially to unexplored places. If they are unable to travel they will probably move their furniture around from time to time.
- Progressive ideas about marriage, family life and education.
- Mischievous sense of humour.
- Fond of fashion and dressing up.
- Can be social climbers with the gift of the gab.
- Need to be sure they do not spend too much time indoors.
