I use a tabloid supplement called 'We Love Telly'. I sift through it for
fonts/colours/words that look interesting and snip them out. I try and put
phrases and words together as they occur to me. I stick them onto paper and
leave them for a few minutes or hours... Then I re-cut/re-stick as
different combinations occur to me (discarding some along the way). When I
feel happy, I post up the text version. This is the second time I've done
this and I find the process very satisfying.
This one took me about five hours but I was doing other things in-between
(including taking a short nap).
Cheers
Tina
