A Little Creative Inspiration…

I deeply admire and am inspired by the creative people in my life.  Looking through a friend’s fashion illustrations this evening, I was struck by the same old message from the universe that hard work fuels success, not luck.  I know that my friend will be wildly successful, not because she is lucky, but because she is talented, works hard, and does not give up.  Check out her work on Pinterest or at her blog, Drawn to Style.

Thanks for the inspiration, Tanya!

Life, Writing

Dark inspiration.

Before I started writing my book, a picture of a little family enjoying a picnic inspired me.  They were in a grassy field, with the slanting sunlight of late afternoon streaking the shot, shadows creeping in around the edges.  The young mother, father, and baby sat on a little blanket, seemingly happy, but also somehow deeply dissatisfied.

Pictures and music inspire me, make me want to write.
Today, I discovered a photographer whose haunting images are filling my head with new ideas.
Thanks, Mike Shaw.
