I've always wondered where writers get their inspirations. Do you outline ideas, or do they just flow? I don't see how fiction writers can keep everything flowing - it amazes me. There is a creative genius in writing that I truly admire. I hope these come through for you. I'd like to see them both. The first one sound like it is one of those marvels when you buy one book, but get several stories. Still, it is the second one that sounds especially intriguing to me.
I usually don't do too much w/ outlines. This is the part that I already seem to have down before I start writing anything. My inspiration comes from having an interest in EVERYTHING. The key, for me, isn't just to have an interest in what I'm writing about, it's actually knowing exactly what that interest is and where it came from. I try and put a little bit of me into every word. I've always believed that writer's block comes from trying to satisfy anyone and everyone but yourself.
