Take part in a different type of marathon. February again will host the month long creative challenge known as “thing-a-day”

“Now in its 6th edition, thing-a-day gathers makers, tinkerers and creators of all sorts to share their work and efforts through the month.” ~ thing-a-day.com

So for 29 straight days all participants try to create something every day. It can be photos, doodles, poems, recipes, and more. Anything you do can be included. Then you can share your creations and receive comments on a community blog. Go to http://thing-a-day.com/ to register so you can start posting on Feb. 1st.

Remember to stretch.

A New York City detective has to deal with her retired police officer father moving in and messing with her personal life.

Now you come up with your own Poorly named TV cop drama or comedy.

Have Pun!

Bonus: Pick a cast!

If you watch The Wizard Of Oz backwards, it’s about a girl from Kansas hiding from a wizard by following the yellow brick road to the Munchkin village, where she rides her flying house back home.

Here is a quick easy exercise to try.

Pick any movie, TV show, novel or story and rewrite backwards.
Have fun!

Bonus: Pick a historical event and reverse it.
If you watch The American Revolution backwards. The USA fights alongside the French to force England to accept them as a colony

There is an entire website dedicated to this. (ifyouwatchitbackwards.com)

There are certain movies that should never be remade. Bah! That is what some people think. There is always room for improvement or at least room for an attempt. I’m looking at you Tim Burton.

Anyway I found this list of movies that should never be remade. I took out a few but here is what is left.

  • The Wizard of Oz
  • The Godfather
  • Casablanca
  • Ghost Busters
  • Goodfellas

Here is the challenge. You get to cast the remake.

You have to pick from the actors who are still working today.

Find an actor for the lead roles.

Have Fun!

Bonus: Pick another movie that has not been remade that you would like to see remade.
