The truth is, finding an idea to inspire your writing isn’t all that easy, and most people don’t have the faintest idea of how to find an idea.

Monday—Listing Your Way to New Ideas
Tuesday—Using Unexpected Connections to Generate Ideas
Wednesday—What Ifs That Lead to Ideas

Oh, this is definitely what I am weakest at! So, I'll be sure to check back.
Good deal, Corey. Be sure to tell me what is most helpful from this week. THANKS!
I'm always amazed at how a simple idea one week may evolve into a layered idea months or years later. Kind of like kids. Everything develops in its own time. :)
So-o-o-o true! If you plant them, they can grow!
