Anyone interested in a January writer's sketchbook?

[resonant]

I've been enjoying the December Daily, and trying to think of something to do for January. I started thinking about the possibility of the equivalent of a sketchbook for writers, and one of the ideas I had was that you could have one column of prompts and one column of styles, and randomly choose one of each.

I couldn't think of any prompts, but I came up with a whole mess o' styles:

P.G. Wodehouse
Jane Austen
a trite YA dystopia
the Official Policies and Procedures
a Lush catalog
a wine-tasting expert
an old-fashioned bodice-ripper
a Novel By a Man
a literary novel
a perfume expert
a high-end menu
a diner menu
an article in Martha Stewart Living
a sci-fi raygun shoot-em-up
a diet book
Charles Dickens
a Leonard Cohen song
the annual report of a failing tech startup
a spam email
your ex-boyfriend when he's tipsy and nostalgic
a department-store makeup specialist
an advice columnist

Would anyone else be interested in trying to do something like this? Does anyone have any ideas about how to make this better?

I love this. How about adding:
Time/Effort Breakdown in Order to Improve Our Efficiency and Service

I've never heard that precise phrasing, but the general concept is familiar and could be really funny.
