So many things inspire me! I read constantly, so I'm always triggered by little moments and scenes in books I enjoy. Sometimes even the style of a book gets me excited. I just devoured Dracula, and now I have a strong urge to write an epistolary novel, but who knows if that will happen?
Apart from books, I'm inspired frequently by nature. I live in a bustling city (NYC), so getting out into nature is very restorative for me. The sights and the smells and sounds, the wildlife, the different colors all can spark an idea for a story, so I wind up taking a lot of photographs when one of those moments strikes, so I can look back and remember that visceral reaction.
