Inspiration for me comes from my 53 years of life. Childhood and moving all around the country, PNG and Fiji. My father worked in Mining and Construction. Due to moving so much I became very adaptable at watching everyone and everything going on in the world. I loved reading, loved to chat so always found a friendly face at each different school.
My love for Photography, Art Journaling and Creative Writing are all knitted together for inspiration as I enjoy my 50’s - also makes me look back at my history with a different perspective.
You have a story to tell, Melissa. It oozes from you every time you mention childhood and growing up and life now with chronic illness. Gosh I hope you share it with the world! xxx
Thank you Kim for your kind words. I definitely do have a story to tell and it’s bursting through the more creativity I do. Even as a teenager I knew one day my story would somehow come to life. I have a title and I will know when the time is right to put it all together.
Inspiration - I’m one of the lucky ones that have a head full of inspirations, nudges, oh look at that kind of things. Visually it’s a constant flow.
Nature and gardening are what makes me inspired to write. Writing do not come naturally to me. It’s a process, never flows. But after a long walk or time gardening (I lend myself to others gardens since I lack one at the moment) there seems like space is opening up and words stumble out and start to form sentences. Maybe it’s the more hands on work with soil, plants and such that needs full attention that relaxes the brain in some ways.
So different a different kind of inspiration, unintentional in away.
Thanks for your words - always nudge me in the best way. 🌻
I am exactly the same! The garden is my space for writing flow. It’s a different kind of inspiration, yes! I totally agree. I so hope your writing continues. There is much value in it. 💓
