This is only a microscopic summary of what can and should inspire the most perceptive and dutiful of writers. Anything and everything is the shortest possible answer (or 'nothing' if you're a pessimistic rebel). To make the most of your talent as a writer you should never close your door to the infinitely dissimilar arrivals to your doorstep; what you choose to invite in over the threshold of your imagination is entirely personal and unique to any particular author.
In the beginning, before adult tendencies start waging war on liberal artistic instincts (in most), a child's mind is an open skylight to the myriad influences of the world that pass by their eagerly absorbing eyes. This is the level of curiosity that I adhere to or, rather, arrests me as I go about the day-to-day drudgery which we all have to wade through before our short visits to paradise. Though, it probably occurs less than when I was a child, this curiosity control still possesses an inordinate degree of power over my senses, and when I'm attracted to something I will be lost to its capacity to inspire in me as many ideas as it can.
