Out of ideas?

Get inspired! There are probably a gajillion ways to do so, but here are some of my favorite tips:

1 Imagine yourself. Go ahead, do it. Now just see what you do. Just imagine yourself moving, meeting, munching, whatever! Keep going like that. How do you interact? What would you do, because you can do anything?

2 Base it off of real life. This is different then Number One. Write a quick paragraph about a moment in your life. Use that to create a new story. Maybe your character does the same thing is you. Maybe not.

3 Watch a movie! Read a book! Listen to music! Inspiration is when you get an idea. How do you get the idea? You are inspired by something someone else did. Acknowledge someone else's words. So get reading! Get watching! Get listening!

4 Out of new ideas? Use an old one. Whenever you have an idea, write it down so you might use it some other time. Look at old ideas, or continue an old story. Something new may come to mind, or maybe you'll just have fun finishing that old story you started.

5 RELAX! Don't stress. Chill out, and let your mind rejuvenate. Ahh. Bliss. It's like Hawaii, but less calm.
