Daily Inspiration




Prompt: A garden in an alley.

Suggested Listening: What Are You Looking For - Sick Puppies

Quote: Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes a human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning. - Maya Angelou


Take from the above quote what you will, but I've always found it to mean that if you believe in something you're writing, you need to be able to vocalize it. If what you're writing makes your blood sing and your spirit soar, say it. Explain your ideas to other people, get a movement going.

Today, take what you've written and read it out loud to yourself. Don't edit, don't revise, just read it out loud. You can even give your characters funny voices for the dialogue, if you want to.
