I’m making a list of ten ideas/things every day for 90 days to become an idea generator. This is supposed to be good practice for seeing story in everything. This is day 41. Today I’m listing the ten characters I am writing about lately:

1. A couple of boys who hunt golf balls in the country club water hazards and sell them back to the club pro for a quarter each.
2. An international productivity expert who likes to give TedTalks.
3. A scientist at the Atomic Clock in Colorado
4. A kindergarten teacher
5. A watch repair shop owner
6. A part-time d.j.
7. A plumber’s apprentice who is dating the part-time dj.
8. A wedding/marriage planner
9. A photography student who pays for school by walking dogs.
10. A tailor’s apprentice.
