i have found myself being sat in a car with nothing to do but to listen my own thoughts and ideas inside of me.
My 'inner voice' as i like to call it and many others will do too. But it speaks to me. I know that it sounds completely crazy and unbelievable but it is actually true.
in my head there are twp sides, reality based and the writer side with the impossibilities of life.
One side verses the other, as in most novels.
But that is what makes you who you are. The ways that you can turn something normal, like traffic in to something exciting. The whaky weird ideas are always the best because you can dull it down a little for adult readers or make it more exciting and different for the teenage reader.
That makes the difference between a good idea and a brilliant one. with a little but more work on it.
So back to the basic point here, if you find you self in a car, train or, bus or even a plane, like i am sat in a car now. Listen to the ideas flow through you, write them down on paper, use your arm if you have to. This is when you are just you, because you have no one to impress no one to hide away from, no one to talk to (If you with your family then tell them what your idea is and see what they think)
Never be afraid to express your self, writers explore themselves and who they are as a person. It shows how you react to different things and experiences and interpret them in different ways.
