It’s perhaps more of an intellectual question.
It seems to me there’s a continuum of ideas-generation, where at one end of the scale you can have a person literally overflowing with story ideas, and at the other end, people about whom you might say that if they had an idea it would be lonely.
Presently, I probably fit somewhere in the middle of that continuum.
I think it goes without saying that a story is made up of a succession of connected ideas.
So here’s the question: what can one do to improve ideas-generation?
