5 Odd Places To Get Writing Ideas by gracile(f): 8:52am On Jul 27, 2019 |
Hello y’all! It's been a minute and I've really missed you guys especially literaturelanders. I want to mention names like Oluwabuqqyolo, Rachael, Tiffanyj (my mama), Royver (my author crush) agapecharis, etc but I won't be surprised if they aren't active here anymore like myself and that's even if I got the monikers right (it's a miracle I still remember the codes for smileys). Alright so aside trying to catch up on old friends and hopefully making new ones, I'm here to advertise my blog. I know right, I finally got one lol. So enough already and let's get down to brass tacks. There are various ways we get our inspirations from. For some (and many) it’s music, books, movies to others, it might be real life experiences or purely imagination. And those are valid ways as I use them myself but then, I found that we still sometimes, run out of ideas or inspiration to write or do whatever art it is we do. We’ve all been there. So if you’re familiar with writers block, you’re at the right place. Because the truth is inspiration to write is everywhere around us and one only needs to be observant and curious enough to leave the comfort (regular) zones. Like trying something new maybe odd �. There are so many odd places to get writing ideas from however, I’ve selected only five (5). Whether it’s content writing, creative writing and in fact, generally arts you do. I’m about to broaden your options on getting ideas. Eavesdropping Yo! Time to get your ears up fellas. People dispatch plenty of information when they talk and the good thing is, you don’t even need to creep on them or spy on their conversations. You just need to follow on an interesting chitchat from two ladies or guys, in a bus or on a random queue. Trust me, you could learn a story or two to write about. Animals Weird right? Of course, we’re talking odd. I know for a fact that animals are a very fascinating creature to observe and even learn a few things from. Countless times I have caught myself watching an animal do something even as mundane as regurgitating, and then my brain go spinning several scenarios and patterns associated with the act. I try to imagine what goes on in their head when I see them exhibiting a certain behavior. Take my cat for instance, Tabby perfectly knows how to carry herself and still cherish her comfort, so I learnt poise from her. She’s also charming, now ain’t I? *flutters lashes* lol. So when next you see an animal, be it your pet or kangaroo in the bush, stop and watch them with keen interest, you never know, that may be the answer to your next genius story! Market place I always say that the market is where you see all caliber of persons. From the mildly insane to the extremely insane to those that are just insane, by default! A few times, I’ll stand by and watch, intrigued by the movements, dress, body language of diverse people, brushing shoulders, breaking sweat, spewing curses hauling germs in a rush to buy and sell! There are so many amusing characters to talk about in the market; definitely not a bad idea for comic write ups. Gym You already know that people think clearer when they’re fit plus funny ‘stuffs’ do happen in the gym. I once heard a weightlifter died after a bench press fell on his neck (this is not funny though). Now, you may want to maximize your next work out session so, instead of ogling at that hot lady’s behind or that dudes abs when you’re on break, get yourself a story to write about. Ogling a lil bit don’t hurt too though. Taking walks Oldie but absolutely a goodie. Especially, in our contemporary world where walking is seen as a punishment reserved for the ‘broke’ or stingy folks. Now not only is this activity healthy but it also allows one ample amount of time to think, reflect and meditate. Instead of jumping into the next available motorcycle or cab, take a walk. You also get to burn some calories and save some change for ice cream later � Now it’s your turn, what unconventional (odd or weird) ways or places do you get ideas from?
