For today, get a pen and an old white shirt that you don't really want anymore. It must have sleeves.
Now, listen to this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6FFM7w5Qys and in the ten minutes it takes to do so, write a short story about a teenage dance party, but limit your writing to the left sleeve of the shirt.
Now, listen to the song again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6FFM7w5Qys and in the ten minutes it takes to do so, write a short story about a group of teenagers getting arrested for public intoxication after a teenage dance party, but limit your writing to the right sleeve of the shirt.
Now, listen to the song again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6FFM7w5Qys and in the ten minutes it takes to do so, write a short story about a teenager been driven home by his or her single father and he posted bail for them, but limit your writing to the back of the shirt.
Now, listen to the song a final time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6FFM7w5Qys and in the ten minutes it takes to do so, write a short story about returning to school the Monday after a riotous teenage dance party that ended in jail and awkward family dinners all weekend, but limit your writing to the front of the shirt.
Lastly, wear the shirt in public during your next run to the convenience store and then mail the shirt to
