Food for Thought: Get creative
I was reading today’s post on Copyblogger with some tips to inspired writing. I found one to be particularly poignant and i’m looking forward to seeing if it opens me up right here on TheSessionSpot.
Here’s the tip:
Listen to albums from beginning to end
Music is one of THE biggest sources of inspiration for yours truly – there’s something about the “right” song that can have you from feeling brain-dead with writers block to painting masterpieces like Michelangelo. What a lot of us, especially with modern technology, no longer do is listen to an album from start to finish.
Not only buy the entire album from an artist, but also listen to each song in order. Musicians are artists who usually order the track listings intentionally. Albums tell a story, they paint a picture; and isn’t that what we want to do as writers with our blogs?
– Now instead of blogs.. apply this to anything you do and you may just find the inspiration you need to get through whatever your day throws your way.
Go forward and create!
