Most of the time I get ideas from something visual. Sometimes it's something real that I see outside or in a book or a photograph and so on, and sometimes it comes in a dream. The challenge is to work out the story that is going to grow from the image. Occasionally I hear a phrase and the words of that phrase will grow into something, but my starts are usually visual.
