I was asked last night where I get my inspiration from. As an ordinary 20 something year old.. Yeah, we'll leave it at 20 something, I can honestly say it's people and situations around me that inspire me. I've kept a notepad on me for the last year or so, although extremely unorganized it does boast a lot of ideas.
It's packed with lyrics, storylines, plots, character names and one liners that I heard along my day.
I'm a people observer, I take note of mannerisms, tones of voices, expressions and match them to certain characters that I am developing.
I'm quite well known for my sarcasm, and although at times it can get me into trouble it can also raise a smile. I've written a few articles in the past that have been published and have also gained me a little credit for writing. However, an article is not fiction and that's where I'm hoping to head. So where does my inspiration come from? It comes from you, and you and you and you. Yes, from the general public. For this I can only be eternally grateful because without you guys I'd have an awful case of writers block. Happy writing
