Awe...

What inspires you? 
Big question! 
Do you remember the last time your heart, body and mind were in complete unison?
Were you awestruck at the sight of something?

Imagine seeing the grand canyon or Ayers Rock (Uluru) for the first time. 

Or better yet, the first time you saw the Earth from above. 
 
Keep imagining what it would be like to see our little blue planet from space for the first time! 
For me, it is a life long dream, wish, desire... need I go on!
I guess that's what inspires me to write science fiction. To look up and see the billions of stars that twinkle at us through the atmosphere. Once you get through the atmosphere, they don't twinkle anymore! The idea of being in space, of seeing my beloved little planet for the first time; well that is my idea of true awe. It is what inspires me. 
I hope your inspiration brings you great joy.
