Inspiration

Many people ask me where I get my inspirations from. I have revisited this topic probably hundreds of times, and my answer changes every single time, so I figured I would give you, dear reader, something of a slide show!!!

A long time ago (in a far away land -- aka England...and Scotland) my mother and I were on vacation! Whoohoo!!! (Hi Mom! :3) And of course while my mother took numerous photos of me standing beside important and historical sites... I snapped random shots of houses and cobble stones. Why? Because I knew that I could use it for inspiration for my novel!

Note: Here I have simply shown a picture and then posted a small comment on what it inspired me for.


This is a beautiful house...which then was described as the house of my character. (SO PRETTY!!)



This dress was used for a ball in the sequel.


CREEPY GRAVEYARD!!! See that broken tomb stone?? I'm positive a supernatural being came out of that! (This was used in an epilogue for a random short story :P)


This is the most beautiful fish I have ever seen, and was used as a character's pet. :3

As you can see, you can get inspiration from anywhere, and everywhere! And it's always good to be prepared:


I always have my note books and iPod with me :3

You never know when you might see something amazing!!!
So keep your eyes wide open!

Have a great Monday!

Your blog and your photos are quite amazing! You lead a very interesting and cultured life - lots of inspiration sources I guess :) But then, you have the creativity to be able to SEE those 'random' photos and and the imagination to DO something (you writing, art) with them, too! Awesome :D
