When I use a song as a bouncing-off point, it's usually the lyrics that I use. The words of the song either give me an idea for a story, or they work with the story or chapter that I'm working on, and they help me frame the story, or just give me the feeling that I'm looking for. Sometimes it's the music of the song, too, but most often the lyrics.

That's interesting, Jennifer, I hardly ever listen to the lyrics when I try to find inspiration. The again, my inspiration hardly ever comes from songs, but more from something that's happened or so, and then I use the songs to find the right mood or feeling. So I usually just listen to the melody.

I use music the most as well. The words, the style, the feeling behind the music, the instruments. I have thousands of songs on my i-pod, so if I'm out of inspiration I flick through and see which one catches my ear.
I sometimes use art as well..but mostly music I even used the thunderstorm we had last week as inspiration __________________

I get the best ideas just before I go to sleep. You know when your mind just wanders? I'm not sure what inspires them. My crazy brain I suppose. Then I have to get up and write it down and the chance of sleep is ruined for another 20 minutes.

I get that, too, Rhi. I get ideas right before I go to sleep, and then I forget them by morning Or I turn on the light and write them down, which keeps me awake!
I also get ideas when I'm driving to work, so I bought a digital voice recorder to save them __________________

I know Rhi, I have the same thing! I get those ideas and I have them all mapped out in my head and I get so excited that sleeping is not really an option

Sometimes that happens to me too, but not very often

I do that sometimes, just to get writing It helps writers block a lot
If I'm in an awkward place to write my ideas down, I write them in my phone Which is difficult, but then I don't lose my ideas __________________

Music is what inspires me most of the time. When ever I'm writing, I have my earphones in and my music going. It's normally, just one song or a CD by a band so I have it on repeat all night Or right as I'm about to fall asleep, I'll think of something and then I can't sleep and have to go write the idea down or I'll forget it, lol. The things people say or do. Almost anything can inspire me and give me ideas, I have an wickedly awesome imagination
Something I read, if it's a newstory or random facts, help me best next to music, oddly enough I'll just read something and it'll spin into an idea and it forms into something until I have to write it down. __________________

Sadness is also a good one. One I always hope to avoid, but it still comes. It's one of the laws of living.
