i get them from almost anything a book, a leaf, a song, a show, an animal, a bubble, a riddle, a game. The story I'm working on, I got inspiration from an annoying football comercial.
eeehhhh usually from caffeine and/or sugar rushes. sometimes from songs. sometimes from other books, fairy tales, etc.
on thursday my class was at pizza street and i got a little chain and a bouncy ball and got this really cool story idea.
I think I get inspiration from the weirdest places. Like an old photograph of my grandparents, or a map lying on my desk. Once it was from an old instant messaging conversation added to CSI.Friends of mine often trigger something too, using a phrase or word I find intriguing, and I'll start to write on that.
But I guess it's different for a lot of people, even if we use the same types. People take things different ways, and therefore publish many wonderful story ideas in the forms of novels.
I get my insoiration from books and songs, and from going of on random topics, like an explosion in the lunchroom, or getting kidnapped, OOOOOHHHHHHH! Inspiration moment!
i don't know how i get inspiration...story ideas just randomly come to me. like, i'll be sitting eating my lunch when all of a sudden i'm like, "OMG!! I JUST GOT AN IDEA!!" And my friends give me weird looks. XD
Haha, i hear that Sella. Sometimes a story will just hit me. Like randomly slug me over the head with a mallet.Then again, even my weirdest stories branch off of facets of my everyday life. The novel on my prof, Ink and Intelligence, was inspired by my bored, random rose design I drew up my arm while I was at camp. >< I try to use events from my own life (though they often become twisted and exceedingly distorted while I write ><)
I get my inspiration from most any where, you young guys better watch out or you will have brain melt like I did before a ripe old age.
haha. sella i know what u mean about random ideas ... :Di got my idea for Reborn when I was drinking coffee alone in the kitchen.
I got my idea for Soul Stealer when I was waiting alone in the car while my dad was like picking up a pizza or something. XD
i don't remember where the rest of my ideas came from. lol.
hmmmmmm so for white walls it came to me when I was listening to music..i live in the dreams of other people was while on goodreads lol!
dont remeber resurrection....
I get inspiration from "imagination" games I used to play with my friends. I've come up with a whole background for one and now im going to write it out for my nanowrimo.
