To Weave A Tapestry Of Words
A Little More On Finding Inspiration

Introduction
You know what the spark is that lights my fire and that enables me to find inspiration in almost anything. These are just a few words on that and I hope I can maybe inspire something in you.
So The Fire Is Lit
So far I have written approximately three-quarters of a million words on Vocal so I reckon that could make up a small tapestry.
I am finding a lot of inspiration in the Ai images that I generate.
Many are free on Pixabay here.
Although I give them a few words to create them, often many are rejected , but some of them deserve a tale to be told about them and therefore I put pen to paper, or rather finger to keyboard and start to weave my tapestry that way. Here is a recent example using one of my images as a prompt.
Other people took to this as well and one became a Vocal Top Story. I am glad that I am not the only one who can use these images to inspire our work.
The fact that others find my Nightcafe work stimulating makes me feel that I am doing something worthwhile and that others feel that too. They are helping me write this piece too. Here is a little about how I create my artwork and why I do it.
I can be inspired by so many visual things but these images provide quite a lot of stimulation and I intend to run more prompts and challenges in The Vocal Social Society just using my images. Our membership is growing almost daily and we have a lot of stories shared and read by our members.
So it may be a landscape, and architectural feature, a monster or some classical figure, all of these can, with the ade of my spark, result in poetry and fiction and articles like this.
I would love to know what inspires you, please let me know in your comments.

I’m a fan of the AI images you put on FB never meddled with it myself
Inspration is everywhere. I'm a pretty visual peson so images definitely help! An interesting read, thank you!
I just cannot get inspired by a picture. I just can't. In fact, nothing inspires me. I just depend on Mr Brain. When he wants, he'll just drop an idea and I'll work on it. Lol
Inspiration comes from everywhere!!! Love this writer's article!!!
You--& others like you--you, inspire me, Mike.
I sometimes get inspired by picture as well. Sometimes a song, sometimes a joke, and sometimes things pop up in my head for no particular conscious reason. Wonderful piece. Well done, Mike.
