What inspires your creativity ?

Family, friends, the people I meet, comedy, the past, experiences I have had (i guess that comes under the past), music. To be fair I haven't done anything too creative in recent times but I'd love to restart my creative side.

Strange thing is , when I am feeling psychically connected I don't feel creative and usually when I am feeling disconnected, then my creativity kicks in ... except not this time

How do you motivate yourself to be creative, when you are not in the mood ?

Isolation inspires my creativity in a sense, but It's more of a condition for it. Once I'm alone anything can come into my head and start growing into an idea. Annoyingly as soon as I share anything the idea dies almost instantly! lol

I don't require motivation, or art. I just like it when it's there. But one of my biggest influences that can make me want to do some kind of creative writing is sensuality, sexyness and the female body, especially of my girlfriend. I start getting confusedly amazed at how looking at her can make me feel tipsy and red on the inside, like I've sipped on the strongest wine in the world.

She is my muse really, except for when we're doing mundane stuff together with the kids or out shopping (though there is moments). If I just get to sit with her alone, watch her walking in and out of the kitchen - see her facial expressions when she's alone with me - they become soft and graceful.

Other stuff is dark and horrible emotions like depression, dread, panic. I like drawing things symbolic of those. Especially because I'm not a self proclaimer, and have a high tolerance level for emotional pain - I generally have to express it to myself, alone.

okay, I'll stop there.
Thanks for an opportunity to look at those things

Thank you for sharing breath,

I agree with you on the isolation, I cannot create when there is too much commotion going on around me. I prefer silence or listening to my favorite cds.

ahh, a sensual muse to inspire one's writing creativity .....most interesting idea

music and emotions. I create much better when im mad, or extremly happy

Being alone and writing.
