The Things That Inspire Me: The British Edition

[first, before staring the post off today, I'd like to give a shoutout to Kendall who correctly guessed the main character of the poem "Bravery" in my last post. Ah, the joys of being a Harry Potter geek and understanding Snape references ;)]


I'm inspired by a lot of things in my life. Lots of things. People...places...things...ideas... Most nouns xD

So today I'm going to take a moment to just list a few things that inspire me...and I'll make a habit of doing this every once in awhile ;)

Today's inspiration theme is...


1. England

Yes, England does inspire me. I've never been there, but it's a place I frequently search on Google, look at the beautiful pictures of it...I could pretty much go there tomorrow and know ten places I would go and see and what I could see there.
But why exactly does this place inspire me? Well, I very frequently write stories with my settings being loosely based on English settings. One of my characters always has a British accent, it's pretty much essential or it's not one of my stories. Basically it's a huge influence on my writing. And what's not to be inspiring about that beautiful picture up there?

2. J.K. Rowling

One of my favorite authors at a dead standstill tie with Suzanne Collins. She's one of the authors who inspires me everyday to write. I can only dream of being as successful as she is...You have no idea how much of a dream come true it would be for me to meet her.

3. English Royalty

Yes, everything about England's royal court fascinates me. A lot of my storylines have something to do with royalty or aristocracy [Emma's blog is one of them] England's royal history has always been a fascinating history topic for me that I actually am very interested in researching for fun.

4. This Dress That Is Vintage English Fashion That I Would Totally Wear And I Don't Even Like, Love Dresses, At All But I Love This thing

'Nuff said.

Four things. Not many as I'm starving and kind of want to go and eat xD

Thanks for reading my fellow bloggers, and stay tuned for the next post that is sure to come ;)
