But I've seriously been wondering, what triggers fictional writers??? Where do you/they get that stuff from?. Is you/their minds that naturally creative?.
I'm genuinely very concerned.x

Some "extend" more than others.

Hi Lupe. What are you concerned about?
About how far one's minds has to wonder, put their words in order and still come back to "normal".

The strength and depth of the human mind is endless. Imagination is the expansion of the human mind and fiction writing is an extension/expression of that.

Impressive.... got to love the human mind.
I picked a real life occurance used that as a framework, and wove a story round it.
It was fun. You should try it

@lupe.You should experiment, just for fun. I started a blog ages ago, which allowed me the freedom to explore my imaginative side.

Experiment you say.... I wish you hadn't reminded me to do that =p . Btw, I do have a website/blog.
Show me when it's done. Can be anything from a sentence to an A5 page length... And,,,, go
Some people have the gift for words.
Most people today are tone deaf to the beauty of English prose and poetry.
Take Shakespeare for example.
He didn't write to impress anyone.
He wrote plays for a company of strolling actors called The Lord Chamberlain's men.
Shakespeare's motivation was to make money. It was his livelihood. His band of strolling actors were considered little better than vagabonds.
Stage actors were considered very low class people. And yet they could read and memorize overnight long speeches from Shakespeare's plays which they were expected to perform the following day.
Another example would be Jane Austen.
She wrote exquisitely and beautifully.
And yet she did not consider her fiction a big deal. She was a loving aunt and nephews and nieces adored "aunt Jane".
Her wish was to be remembered as a loving aunt and not as a great writer.
Then consider the Bronte sisters. They were the daughters of a priest on the bleak , cold Yorkshire country. Their main focus was their domestic chores and tending to their sick father. In between their domestic chores they scribbled the most amazing fiction.
I could go on.....

I know every good writer is definitely "out there".

I know what you mean, I remember watching a movie called 'The Cell' with Jennifer Lopez in the cast. When it was over I walked out of the movies thinking who ever wrote this script needs help. Freaked me out on so many levels.
On the flip side if that was the impact the movie wanted to have then job done.
