Wow, different sources there. I think I'll try all.

for inspiration READ...
Well, I spend every moment of my life (except the time I spend on the Downs, which is considerable,) reading. I often find an idea for a story in a book, but when I write up the idea, it always turns out to be utter rubbish. I'd never thought of using history. That would probably make for an interesting story. Today I saw a ballet version of Romeo and Juliet, and I got an idea, but I forgot it by the time I got home, because I had been talking to my old math teacher's daughte on the train, and everything that had been in my head evaportated [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img]

dreams are no source of inspiration to me. let me tell you about my last one.
i go back in time using a time travelling TRACTOR, find a dinosaur and put it in one of those black bin bags. i put a FULLY GROWN ADULT T-REX in a BINBAG! then i come back to the future. that is no help at all.
Lol, almost all of my dreams are like that. But, a. I dream a lot, so sometimes I might have one almost normal dream in, say, 2 weeks, b. sometimes I get an idea from a dream and use it in some way, just chainging it. (Something sort of scared me- in the last month and a half, I've had my first 2 nightmares in years :eek [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img], and c. you could use that for some really wacked out little kids’ story [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
