-Go to your music and pick a song at random. My favorite way is to put all my songs on shuffle and skip three times.
-Listen to the song, so it's fresh in your mind.
-Let it inspire something. A setting? A Character? A Plot? All three?
-Listen again with that in mind if necessary.
-Share!

My song: "Human" by Muse
What it inspired- the song itself has a bit of a narrative so I'm going to say that the character I saw in that narrative was a man driving home from a job that keeps him away for long long periods of time, by himself and without community or family around. He's keeping track of every mile until he is home with his people, singing to the music in his car and trying to keep his spirits up.

This idea directly brought to you by the fact that Stealing a Stranger was in no small part inspired by "Royals" by Lorde
