G'day all.
A little over 2 years ago I began setting the foundations for a world in which I would set a series of novels. I have created history, characters, factions and their relationships to one another and the inner workings of unique societies. After said 2 years based in this world I'm looking to take a step away and try my hand at a short story to hit refresh on what influences me and my creative process. Currently my mind is too bogged down in what I've started and how to expand those ideas that I struggle to focus on taking it further.
So now for my question, does anyone have any advice on finding inspiration? Are there any posts on here dealing with such a topic?(I'm sure there are a few)
Additionally what inspires you and your writing?
Side note: I wasn't sure where this post should be put so I hope it has an acceptable home here in the 'Writing Questions Forum' that it won't have to pack up its' letters, hire a moving van and relocate.
