Strange Inspirations
What’s the strangest place inspiration has ever found you?
Some of my best lines have shown up when I didn’t have my notebook, my “writer mood,” or even a second to breathe.
Inspiration is honestly feral.
It doesn’t knock. It breaks in.
Maybe it found you:
in the shower
in a doctor’s office waiting room
half-asleep at 3AM
at work (when you absolutely were not supposed to be thinking about poetry)
in the middle of an argument
in the grocery store aisle holding pasta like it held your entire life together
✨ Tell us: what’s the strangest place inspiration ever hit you—and what did it give you?
A line? A scene? A character? A whole plot?
Bonus points if you drop the line/idea you captured from that moment 👀
