I will throw in my inspirations too, this sounds fun.

Thief - I was having a terrible headache, and I was thinking how I would prefer someone nailing my head to the wall with a hammer.

Mother's Love - It was very late at night and my cat got really upset and terrified of something. In my head I conjured a monstrous image of my mother lurking at the end of the hallway, and that scared me shitless, so I decided to write about it.

I Am a Big Boy - This was a pasta for a freestyle competition, where we were given one word and we had to make a pasta of it in one day. Mine was "nursery", so I googled "creepy nursery" and one image gave me the idea for the first scene of the story. The rest, I just wrote.

Just like Old Times - I went to my village for a couple of days, and I was hit by a wave of nostalgia.

In the Woods - I was sitting at my balcony and I decided to write a story about the first thing that I saw when I opened my eyes. A chair and the woods. That gave me a general idea for the story, but the main inspiration was my hatred for jogging.

Darkness - I was playing with my cat in the living room, and at one point, I hid under a table. My cat jumped on top of it and I was teasing her from under the table.
