I was journaling last night, and I started making a list of the pieces of media that inspire me the most in my creative writing. I sat down with the goal of brainstorming for a new project I’m planning to work on, and when I was struggling to think about what I wanted to write, I wrote down a list of all of these stories that resonated with me in some way – whether it’s the stories themselves, the way they were told, or something else that lives rent free in my head.
If I could write something even remotely as beautiful as any of these, I’d feel incredibly accomplished and proud. I wanted to share the list with you! Here it is.
