^hmm too saracastic.


I get inspiration to write , from remembering past thoughts and situations and feelings. Also research the different types of writings , you will eventually get an idea.

For me i like to be around some sort of moving water...like a lake or the ocean......i just got a fish tank and it really does help you think better....

If you listen to the water and watch the fish swin, it relaxes your mind and allows it to expand....i sound like a yoga instructor!...LOL, but it does work for me! biggrin.gif

I guess you could go outside or listen to some music or something like that.

like what everyone else said,
listen to music you like, and think about whatever has happened in your life that has to do with the kind of writing.

i hate writer`s block.

music. listen to the music you like to get in "your mood". think about the things that are going on inyour life and dramatize it. works for me.

i don't think i even have creative writing anymore sad.gif but if i did, i'd write about my boyfriend happy.gif

i had this essay i had to write using personal experiences and i though about my boyfriend, and wrote about him wub.gif

in normal essays i just think about how to elongate sentences without making it sound redundant...i tend to write them easily

oooo cool topic! i love creative writing. i just write down random ideas, mostly experiences that i've had in my life, or want to have. and then once i write one down that i like, i go from there. i usually write about music, since it's a big part of my life. hope that helped!
