Inspiration

A journey through a young writer's heart


Stories move us. Stories change us. They take us into different worlds, show us right from wrong and stay with us from our childhood until the end. As a bookworm, I like to get completely immersed in a tale and join the emotional rollercoaster that characters have to go through. As a writer, I want to get those words to ring, I want to create new worlds out of nothing and I also want to entertain.

But before you can start spinning the yarn of your very own work, you need an idea, something that will shape your story and your characters. It often starts off with a tiny spark called inspiration that may come to you anywhere at any time and may evolve into something bigger. Like J.K. Rowling, who experienced this spark of inspiration for the story about the boy who lived on a train ride from Manchester to London and has created the magical world we all love.
