Did you ever read something that was so good it made you want to get back to your own writing?

I just finished reading a friend's rough draft of a book (won't say who in case I'm not supposed to) and it was, wow. It was brilliant. Really. It made me cry in the end. If it isn't published someday then there is no logic in the world at all.

I may have to hate her because I am convinced she is going to be the successful writer I want to be but don't have the drive to actually do something about it, and I'll be all bitter and jealous.

And now I want to get back to my own story, because I want to see if I have a tenth of the spark in my story that was in hers.

Seriously, I just had to share because...wow.

I know the feeling. While I'm procrastinating on my own stuff, every once in a while I stumble across something fantastic someone has written, and I get that urge to start writing again. MUST. WRITE. NOW.

Same goes for me with drawing, as well. I love finding stuff that inspires me.
