Ideas
If one was to look through the kaledioscope of ideas. They would see multitudes of colors spanning several directions. Never intersecting, but always reaching skyward. I find looking for the right idea. The right story to tell reflects on oneself by reading as much as possible, and yet often ideas are repeated. So, how does originality assert itself?
I feel originality comes from the words, and the style, and technique of the one who tells the story. Sure, the writer can be inspired, can mold himself after his idols. But, in his own voice and his own way — he can tell a story that is worth telling.
Take Herbert George Wells for instance, he was lower class man like myself. Yet, he read and read, and read non-stop. Building a foundation of vivid imagination and creativity that dwelled with in his heart. He used that creativity — that imagination to create the Science Fiction genre.
I don’t doubt myself or any other can like wise do the same. All we must do is believe. Believe whole heartily in the words we write, and always look forward to the future.
