My inspiration for my currant story may have come from a plot in my 9th grade english class to swipe a stuffed crow from our teacher's desk when she was out and send it on a plain the the middle of nowhere with a classmate who happened to be going on vacation. Or if any of you reading this is Mrs. L, it was just a random idea and none of us have any clue what happened to edgar.

I'd have to say the weirdest inspiration was from a momentary hallucination. I thought I saw a cowled figure on the side of the road and thus the birth of the rivalry between Dae and Nox was born . . .

Most of my ideas come from the characters, seriously. So it's more like an embellished biography of that voice that won't shut up.

But once something my English teacher said reminded me of World History... I can't remember the rest of that lesson, but I got an interesting world out of it. (The memory managed to turn into a world; then a random person started with their life's story, now I'm writing it... ninja I'm sane...)

A baseball. I picked it up and struck a pose like one of the characters I was writing about would, and then suddenly a whole dramatic last chapter rushed into my mind. I love that baseball... heart

A potential song title in the Rocky Horror Picture Show sequel: "Frankie Phoenix".

Now Frankenstein is ressurected from his death (an idea originating, in fact, from a dream I had...) with that yell of triumph from his killer. "Behold-- Franky Phoenix!"

I was at school, half listening to my friends talk when my best friend, the guy who was sitting next to me shouted "Why are you complaining, you're the one who got me pregnant!"

To a girl....

They were joking around of course, because a girl at are table is pregnant and they love to joke about it amongst them selves. about how he acts more like the mother to be than she does (he's not the one who knocked her up though).

1. I was watching water run down my arm in rivets, and decided that, one day, I would have a character whose skin always looked wet.

2.The lines "your tears to roses," and "whispers in the dark" (Whispers in the Dark by Skillet)

A girl lives in a city that cannot grow flowers. By an unusual circumstance, she cries roses (they turn to roses when they touch something besides her skin.) She sells them to romantics, but has not love of her own. When she is traveling to deliver roses to a "king," she is lost in a forest and hears whispers in the dark--they're encouraging. When she arrives back home from her journey, a friend of hers is standing in the doorway with a batch of paper roses just for her.

I’ve found that I will come up with stories to songs that utilize lyrics as dialogue. I’m not sure why.

Wow. I love that song~ And the 'tears to roses' thing is definitely one of my favorite lines. I'd love to read that story if you ever post it somewhere! Sounds very interesting and -so- original. =)

The wierdest thing for me would probably be when I was in the car with my mom and I was playing around with a small pouch of golden dollar coins that my grandma gave me for Christmas. It was one of the worst stories I've ever written. It was about these magic coins. I think it was that there were a total of...25 coins in all. 1 shadow coin, 6 fire coins, 6 earth coins, 6 water coins, 6 air coins. I woulda loved having the shadow coin <3

I got inspired for one of my favorite works by a mardi gras themed song...

Another came from baking a cake...
