Ideas?

So you’re stuck–not an idea in sight, your pockets are empty and there’s nothing up your sleeves. Don’t despair! Ideas come from writing. The more you write, the more ideas you’ll have. Turn off that internal editor who tells you your writing is so bad even the dog won’t listen and put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard.

And yes, ideas come from observation too. Make sure you have notebook where ever you go because you never know when an interesting person will pass your way, or when an interesting conversaton might catch your ear. Look, really look at the world around you. You’ll be amazed at how much most of us never see.
