WRITE ONIf you follow me on twitter, you may have noticed I tend to tweet a lot of links to songs I'm listening to as I write, and photos I take on my weekend adventures. I'm not someone who can sit in a silent room with the curtains drawn and write; having images and music to inspire me is a key part of my writing process. As I share my love of music in my monthly playlist posts, I thought I'd share some of my adventure images with you guys so you can see what I'm looking at when I dream up my stories.
You'll notice I have a bit of a thing about creepy trees...
These were all taken in and around North Wales. I'm lucky that I live in a beautiful part of the world, and I find looking at the photos I take while I'm out and about - gorgeous scenery, creepy stuff, action shots, candid stills of people - help me find the words I want to write. They don't need to be connected with what's happening in my WIP, but just the colours, the mood, of a photo can put me in a writing frame of mind.
What kind of images do you use for inspiration?
