All About Inspiration

Okay, so some people have trouble finding ideas of what to write about. Bellow are a few tips I think might help.

1: What do you like? Write about something your passionate about. Whether it's horses or aliens, it's up to you.

2: Who do you like? And I don't mean this by who are your crushes. I mean have you seen or know somebody that inspires you? Maybe right something about them, it can be nonfiction or fiction, it's up to you.

3: Pay attention to the world around you. There are ideas for stories all over the place, especially in nature. Take a walk outside and bring a notebook. You can come up with  many ideas just by looking out the window.

4: Read. It's that simple. Did you read about a character you like in a book? Change their name and wright a back story about them. Or maybe create a sibling or friend that character might have. Or simply expand the already ended story you read, create your own sequel.

5: Do it. Don't think to hard about it. If you have an idea write it out! Worry about spelling, grammar and layout later. Don't even worry if your handwriting is messy (I know mine is!) your the one who is reading it, at least for now.

6: Don't be afraid to cross stuff out, just don't throw away pieces that you could use later. Or even if you get writing in a direction you don't necessarily want to, don't throw it away! Remember: the pencil (or pen) knows!

I hope this helps!
