Blogspiration (1): Pass it on




Blogspiration is a weekly meme hosted by GrowingUp YA & Saz101. The meme was created to help spark inspiration among bloggers, readers & writers alike. An inspirational quote/picture/video is posted weekly, on the day of the author’s choosing, so that it may inspire creativity, conversation & just a little SOMETHING.



I finally decided to do one of these wonderful blogspiration posts and it's about time too.

(via Pinterest)

I couldn't agree more with Albert Einstein. Creativity means different things to different people. Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes, and generating all sorts of ideas no matter how outrageous they may seem to yourself and to others.

So I don't know about you guys but I totally believe that creativity IS contagious. I mean, whether you're reading a book, writing a manuscript or simply drawing a picture . . . pretty much everything around you - no matter what you're doing at the time - pokes into your creativity zone and this quote really needs to be passed along to someone else you know . . . reminding them of what creativity is and hopefully spreading this wonderful disease over to them. Trust me it's not all that bad.

So what about you? What inspires you today?

  1. Yes totally agree with this. Creativity is so important; without it, we wouldn't have all these lovely books to read.

    Today I'm actually inspired by all the love I'm getting through twitter (you included Erin thanks!)

    1. Exactly. Creativity makes us who we are today. I'm glad you're getting the love from the amazing twitter peeps! Love the look of your blog! Consider yourself stalked. Haha.

  2. That is pretty awesome! I love it. And it's true; in my mind, blogging is creative - it's writing, and it may not be "creative writing", but I do think there is an art of writing, and it's different for everyone, coming through in your "writing voice". So, with this in mind, I am constantly inspired by other people's blog posts (whatever the blog, not just book blogs). To write my own. I do think creativity and inspiration go hand in hand. Your creativity will inspire someone to be creative. Fantastic post!

  4. OMG. Erin. I wrote this long gushy comment and UGH. I JUST BLANKED IT.

    But... it was basically that... oh YES. YES YES YES AND I LOVE LOVE LOVE.

    I think it's kind of like our happiness breeds happiness. A smile will elicit another smile, and a laugh is contagious. That expands outwards like a bubble having a last effect, and who knows how far that'll reach? Creative people have the power to make a change for GOOD in the world, to create smiles and laughter, to inspire, teach and... creating feels good. I LOVE this. SO MUCH. Thank you SO much for sharing ♥♥♥
