I find myself to be most inspired by dreams. I have written 3 full novels (converted to screenplays), 3 fanfictions, and a series of children's books. With the exception of my Xander the Brave series for children, all of my works were inspired by dreams and a couple of nightmares here and there. |

Oh my goodness, I know! I often catch myself developing scenes in my head for specific songs. Of course I love the classical music but, most of my writing inspiration comes from the heavier stuff... |

Ha! Have you ever played out a written scene as if you were watching a movie. I have caught myself doing that on numerous ocasions, my editor too! Especially in those very exciting scenes, and the funny ones. |

Nothing is more inspiring than doom metal and dreams. A combination works best, but not at the same time:p |

I usually find my inspiration from real life... I write the things that happened to me in a kind of "this is how it should have happened" -way... Pathetic I know, but I'm far too timid in real life to make the situations what I'd like them to be. :D |

I was listening to that while I was writing, but it started bumbing me out so much that my production slowed to nearly nothing. Lately I've been listening to cheesey eighties pop while I write, but that's starting to grate now too. |

Dreams are good. I think that's the seed of a lot of my work, but inspiration can come from anywhere. I've taken to carrying a little hardback journal with me and jotting little notes about story ideas or scene ideas or just ramdom thoughts I have from time to time so I can remember them. |

A good chunk of my ideas come from dreams... I guess it's because I like to sleep so much, I have a lot of dreams and I usually remember quite a few of 'em. |
