Read lots and lots and lots of other people’s books. Novels
and history books make for good sources of inspiration. A really good poetry
book, and there are some about if you look hard enough, will have you leaping
for your notebook within a few lines. Believe in your creative genius! Understand
that you are the greatest poet currently writing in whatever language you are
writing in. Unless it’s English, in which case the position has already been
filled. You might still be a genius, though. However, this is unlikely.
