Random Sentence Generator

Use this random sentence generator to create random sentences that can help you brainstorm, and come up with new stories, song lyrics, and other writing ideas.

The tool chooses nouns, verbs, and adjectives from a hand-picked list of thousands of the most evocative words and generates a unique random sentence to help inspire you. The generated sentences are not from a pre-fabricated list, they are created on the spot.

Sentence Generator Revisions

This online sentence generator has been recently revised. It now produces a wider variety of sentences but they are still, more often than not, pretty absurd constructions. Hopefully, encountering a silly phrase or two will be inspiring to you.

You can now save all your favorite random sentences. You can even edit them before copying or downloading them as a text file. A little bit of editing can make many of these much better and far more usable.

Random Sentence Writing

This method of using random words to generate ideas is largely inspired by the cut-up technique invented by the writer William S. Burroughs and actively used as part of his writing process.

The original way was largely a much more manual process where words or phrases were written on many slips of paper and then chosen at random to bring about an unexpected and hopefully evocative idea or two.

This is very similar to that creative writing method but it's an automatic process and it assembles the words into a sentence structure so hopefully, there is some meaning, however absurd, that can be wrung from the sentence right away.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy the tool. I'm thinking of making more brainstorming tools like this. They're pretty fun to create and use.
