From a lazy walk through the park to listening to the cannon fire at the climax of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, what is it that inspires you to write? This month, the discussion is about muses.
Let's talk about that!
I am a forest fire and an ocean, and I will burn you just as much as I will drown everything you have inside.

Definitely reading, especially books I enjoy! I strongly believe that reading the books you love and unfamiliar types of books will definitely help you improve your writing. Sometimes while reading I can learn something useful from the author's writing style or plot points or characterization. Or I can be reminded of why writing matters for me: to spin a story I want to tell.
I can't choose! Nature, music, books... all huge inspirations!
If we're talking about inspiration for ideas, books probably are the most significant because that's where I get so many tidbits that contribute to my plots and characters. But if we're talking about something that inspires me in the way that it fills me up with joy and a want to create, all three do that!
John 14:27: Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
You don't know how much being happy can make you write. It just flows. You cannot put that down everything you feel when you're sad. Its just too much. But when you're in love, everything is poetry. Its just there!
As a former (and rather excellent) liar herself, Aru knew that, sometimes, speaking the truth felt like wrenching a thorn out of your side. But doing the opposite meant pretending it wasn't there. And that made every single step ache. It was no way to live. — Roshani Chokshi, Aru Shah and the Nectar of Immortality
