Have you ever just been struck with inspiration out of the blue? I love when that happens.
I've been putting off writing lately, using the old "writers block" excuse. ( really, it is just plain laziness on my part. I could have spent more time writing and less time blogging, facebooking, and myspacing.)
So yesterday, as I was on my was to work, I popped in a CD and out of nowhere a song I was listening to caused a rush of ideas to spring forth. I spent the rest of the work day trying to hold on to the idea, anytime I got into my car I put that song on repeat, fearing I would lose the idea before I could get home and write it all down.
My husband thinks I'm crazy, I'm sure.
I was up until 1am last night playing the song on repeat, while writing. I felt so good, getting the idea on paper. I feel like I made good progress on book two.
So tell me, have you been struck with inspiration like that? What random things have caused a rush of inspiration for you?
