Inspiration

I am re-reading The Silver Chair in the Chronicles of Narnia. Over the past few years I have really come to enjoy that book. For a long time, however, I would not read it because we had the BBC movie, and we had lost all of the other BBC Narnia movies, so what did we watch...You guessed it! The Silver Chair. One thing that I have found, which can be hard to do, but is well worth it, is to imagine the characters to look very different than they do in the movie...an example I imagine Jill to have blond wavy hair, and not that ugly strait brown stuff that she has in the movie. The one problem with this is that I now really want the Jill in the new movie (2012 I think) to have blond hair.
Whenever I want to be inspired to write something I read Jane Austin, or Narnia, for these books inspire me to write more than any other. There is just something about the way that Lewis writes that makes me look at life differently, and I just love the romance of Jane Austin, so I read those too. So far I am three chapters in, and I have already laughed, gotten goosebumps, and written a couple scenes in the new story I am concocting.
