RIPPED PAPER STORIES

In this game, players use random shapes to help generate ideas that are then combined into a story. The exercise, though, is not so much about creating a polished, well-crafted story as it is about stretching and expanding your brain. It is about trying to look at things in new ways and enjoying the unexpected connections that happen when odd things are placed side by side in the context of story. And it is fun.

You could play this game on your own, but it more fun and more effective if you do it with a friend or a group of friends.

After you have read about RIPPED PAPER STORIES you can print an outline of this game to keep in your files.

Get a piece of paper...

Any kind of blank paper will work, but if you use black it easy to see the shapes. A small sheet of black construction paper does the job very nicely.

So, you have your piece of paper...
