The Wizard And The Mouse

I havn't felt the creative 'rush' recently. Or rather, the only times I do are 3am.
That, and i have no time ever.

I recently got a laptop for my birthday, so i will try writing more. *try*

In other news I have to write a 1000 word creative writing piece. Not too bad, except i have no ideas!! I think i need some help - hint hint.

I asked my mum:

"write a story about a wizard with a circle hat instead of a pointy hat"

"nah mum, it would be a top hat"

"Yeah! 'The Wizard With The Top Hat'. It could be about a wizard who isnt afraid to be different. You could start it with: This is a story about a real wizard, not a Harry Potter Wizard"

"Um noo mum"

"Okay, what about 'The Wizard and the Mouse'?"

"No"

"'The Wizard and the elephant'?"

"Whats with all the Wizards! I dont want to write about a wizard!"

She was no help.

Later, as I was trying to brainstorm ideas before for the story, i decided to get out my "red book". This is a journal / workbook from my time in china last year. I thought I could write it all again on here, in a lot more detail. that would take up a LOT of posts =)

Anyway, help with the story would be nice.
