Where do you find creative inspirations?

[~baby~doll~]

I read voraciously stimulating the thought process. A glimpse of an idea sprouts. Imagery flows over me the same way, a picture of a pole dancer, or old man sitting along a curb wine bottle in a bag, even a building burning touch the creative and off I go with pen in hand to flesh this idea into form. It process is much like a seamstress creating a delectable gown one stitch at a time and the story grows.
