Object Writing

I went to an object writing class yesterday. You just pick an object, like "chair"and then you write whatever comes into your head. You're supposed to use all the senses like smell, touch, taste, sight and hearing and use all sorts of strange metaphors that don't really make sense like "she looked at me the with the vagueness of drugged music therapist"

It was very fun- and perhaps could give rise to some ideas...
