Idea Flow

This week i found some time when i should have been studying to work on some original races for my mythology and from one random doodle i came up with a really cool design for this race and one thing led to another and pretty soon i had designed all kinds of stuff. It occurred to me that often that is how my ideas work... i could try for hours with nothing but when something ignites the fuse it races down until it explodes with ideas!
Does anyone else experience this type of creative idea flow?
It works with writing too. Everytime I get a good idea i insert it like a puzzle piece into the big picture of the story or whatever and it seems to fill gaps that i didnt know were there. I am so grateful to God for helping my mind work that way. Not only is it fun but it strengthens my faith because i know he made me unique and every time i learn something new about myself i am stronger.

  1. Yeah. I work the same way. I'll go long periods with nothing, and then get a spark and suddenly find myself awash with ideas - some inter-connected, and some apparently random.
