Writing can be easier when one is able to find an inspiration to write. To be able to pen down your thoughts in the best possible way is a good way to go. When it comes to writing, how do you draw inspiration?
 
I draw inspiration whenever I am playing music, a good environment or if I am in a lighter mood. I can't write well if I am in a sad mood or if I am angry within myself maybe because of what I saw or an unconducive environment.

I agree, Music helps me think clearly and helps the ideas flow out of my head. Having said that it's hard for me to come up with ideas without music. 😎
 
Music inspires me as well as things I read on the internet, along with TV shows and movies. I sometimes draw inspiration from other sources too, but it’s mainly music that keeps me inspired. Additionally, being able to express my thoughts in writing is another important source of inspiration.

Music is life😊 and writing is an inspiration. When you add life to an inspiration, you got the best result.

When it comes to writing I get my inspiration from either being outside and taking in the different sights and sounds I see or from the things that interest me such as video games, wrestling and such.

This is awesome. There are times when I go to the woods all as a result of looking for where I can stay and write. It has always worked because being in a place of calmness inspires me to begin writing, and the results have always been excellent.

Woods or natural place has it 100% for helping in terms of writing. It will give you the calmness and insight that will boost your writing.

I used to go very far to the woods or even at a park in the evening. As I am there, I will be listening to their soothing voices.

Well, this may sound strange but it's actually rain. The sound of rain falling is something so relaxing and fulfilling for me. I can't quite explain it but say that listening to it makes me very relaxed and upbrings my state of mind and I become very creative.

That's also a nice way to be inspired. Before now, I used to walk in the rain because it helps my sanity. It helps me to keep it clear and my thinking being so cool and mindful.
 
I get some ideas from my personal experiences too. Additionally, I make sure to draw from music, art, and culture as well. Certain songs can spark ideas in you.
 
I find inspiration whenever I am at the beach. I am happy that the nearest beach is only 15 minutes away. The sound of the waves inspires me, so I go there whenever I want to write something for my blog. Currently, I am using a free blogging platform, but I plan on buying a domain website before the year ends in hopes of monetizing it. Hehe
 
Sometimes I struggle to find inspiration to write, music usually helps, but I have days where I am more inspired than others.
