User blog comment:TheShapeofThings/Hey OC-makers! Tell me what inspires you!/@comment-12236859-20150101152047

I base my characters' personalities on the people around me who I am very close to and the pictures I draw just pop in my head at random times, such as in school during a very boring lecture. The quotes are just something that come into my head if I look at the character's picture for a while, and their backgrounds are something that I come up with in the same way.

I lose my inspiration on rainy days, which is quite a lot of times in the UK, so that's why my updates may seem slow. When it's only a light drizzle I get inspired to shape the negative sides of my OCs' traits/background etc. So the weather really affects my creativity.
