According to her, writing is a thing that allows her to explore new worlds, to learn something new, to visit places where everything is possible. So write as much as you can. Reading is also as interesting as writing. You can travel back in time, see a thrilling mystery, meet interesting people, etc. Reading allows you to learn many things that you can use in your writing afterward. Dreaming is also important because dreams can be a source of inspiration. The last tip is that you should look for inspiration in things that you like. For example, Suzanne Collins was inspired to write “The Hunger Games” trilogy by the Greek Myth of Theseus and the Minotaur, by Gladiator Fights and by the work experience of her father as a U.S. Air Force officer.
