Erm, so, I realised that while I have a beginning to my novel, I don't really have a middle or an end to it. Except for the basic stuff: the mother wins the election, and the bucket runs out of wishing liquid. That's my roundabout way of saying that I'm stuck.
So I was looking at plot twist generators and was finding that if you're trying to write a realistic sort of story, they aren't much help. They give you ridiculous scenarios and if you're really feeling uninspired it doesn't help. So I thought, Hey, Twitter is full of real people doing real things which are pretty random and could be quite inspiring. So of course I had to use their RSS feed to find out what Terry was doing... and then I piped it.

Slightly dodgy, slightly doesn't work, slightly uninspiring. But certainly useful as a distraction for a moment of your time.
