Inspiration

Thursday, December 16, 2010

Being a writer, I sometimes feel that I find inspiration in the weirdest places.

Things that seem perfectly normal and uninteresting to people are important

to me and what I could use them for in my writing. This is a football stadium -

a pretty average structure in a city. For me, this sparked a whole new set of

characters and a brand new plot line.

50 Word Story:

Gears

Ordinary objects, normal buildings, busy city streets, nothing to be expected

of them. Architecture common to the city. Grey pavement, nothing out of the

ordinary. However, the slightest thing can kick start the gears in a writer's

mind spinning, whirring, clinking, busy creating a work of entwined words.
