Where do writers get their ideas?



WHERE DO YOU YOU GET YOUR IDEAS ???

This can be a simple question to answer - Ideas come from lots of places...

Or it can be a difficult question - No one really knows where ideas come from etc etc...

But over the years I have come to know a lot of authors and I feel quite confident in telling you that I know where lots of them get their ideas...

It's from their cats.... Yes, yes...I know what you're thinking... "This is ridiculous!!!"

But I think it might be true....

Most of the authors I know have cats... Our cat, Polly... just hasn't been pulling her weight recently and that explains why I haven't written as much as I should over the last few months (thankfully this is all sorted now)... What other explanation could their be???

Other writer's cats are far more productive and they are producing much more work than me... to prove it I am going to feature other writer's cats on my blog to show how good they are at helping with writing...

So if you want to succeed in writing.... Get a CAT.

Just to prove this is true I will be featuring pictures of authors cats over the next few weeks... so don't be shy.... send me a photo of your inspirational cat....

Mabel and Charlie (my lovely grey girl cats) have refused to give me any more writing ideas until I've sent their pictures to you so I'm afraid I had no choice. Their fabulous furry faces are travelling through the www to you as I type ;-)
