I am a little confused on the term "novel thought." I am referring to this as in unique thinking, it is out of the ordinary.
For example, take this sentence: "I like novel thought, it's unique." Would that be correct? Or is a "novel thought" only to be used when referring to a single thought or idea?
Another sentence: "I want to unite all of this under one idea -- novel thought." Is this correct?
I hope someone can clear up this confusion.

It is normally used as the fixed phrase: a novel thought (countable noun). I suggest 'creative thinking'.
