The World Is Your Book And All Who Live In It! !

So you can't seem to find ideas for writing.  Did you know that the world is a book .  There are so many stories out there waiting to be told.  Think about your own little corner of the world.  Think about the people who cross your path every day.  Think about the workers on your job, the people in your family, your ancestry.  Stories you've heard as a child.  When I was growing up my grandmother was the story teller, and I loved to sit at her knee and listen to her tell them to me.  If these stories brought joy to you, they might bring joy to others too.  Join groups in your community where people meet to discuss life, their hopes and dreams.  Become a "True Listener to people, and what they are really saying.  These thing can generate story ideas.  The arts can often inspire you.  Music can touch you, pictures can speak to you, nature can envelop you, as you walk around and see all the beauty it holds.  Meet people of all walks of life.  That homeless man you pass on the street, the cashier in the grocery store, they all  have a story to tell, but no one has asked them, why not you?  Become a  People Watcher.   The way they walk, or talk, can often spark ideas for the lives you think they might lead..  Talk to those you admire and hear about their struggles that got them  to where they are today.  Teachers, clergy. doctors, nurses, everyone has a story to tell.  Sometimes ideas come out of the blue, they just happen.  It might be while you are sleeping, in a dream, watching television, listening to the radio.  My book "Revelations Of Love" was given to me in a dream, I got up and wrote the whole book in two hours.  Its out on Amazon now.  My book "Ruth" was inspired when 911 happened, and my book "Leah" was inspired by a friend who was jilted at the alter by the man she loved.  My book "Esther" out  now on Amazon was an idea that just crossed my mind out of the blue.  So you see, you have endless story possibilities out there, waiting to be written.  Just pick up your pen and start writing!!
