On a busy road today, we picked up a cardboard box containing a fancy-looking microphone in a cage, some marker pens and a pair of water wings. We left a message at the phone number that went with the address on the box, but the lack of packaging beyond the box itself suggested that the dropper of these
items, maybe off the tray of a ute, was not the original addressee of the box itself.
The mic beeps sadly and shows blue LEDs - but we don't know what it might do if it got out of the cage.
Anyway, this material clearly needs a story written about it, so it should be possible to post it to a dedicated website, where a writer with writer's block could go and pick it out (or pick out a different one) and get a story moving.

Not really, because that's only one side of the operation. The other side is the sourcing of those prompts. If this website were just what you said, then an actual dog shelter would be a pet shop or a puppy farm. |

You're not feeling it, I can tell. That's OK. |

I'm not sure I understand. Is this idea strictly caged-mic-related? |

No. That particular cardboard box full of oddments was just an example. |
