I'm going on a trip next week. I'm flying to Boston, and then driving to Vermont with a friend. Thinking about driving reminds me of cars, which reminds me of license plates, which reminds me of the License Plate Game. It's a great game for writers!
Even if you're not going on a trip this summer, you can see license plates almost anywhere. Here's how the game works.
Find five license plates that include letters. Then make a phrase out of the letters.
For example:
SFA = Stop Feeding Aliens
MLH = Monsters Live Here
DSOM = Don't Step on Marvin
LL = Lizard Landing
UNH = Unicorns Need Help
For extra fun, use one of your phrases as a story title, and then write a story about aliens, monsters, Marvin, lizards, or unicorns. See how creative you can be, all because of the humble license plate.
