Books would be good place to start. Try going to Cliffsnotes.com and read the synopsises...synopsees...whatever of classic books and see what strikes your fancy.

Hold off until you find something that really moves YOU. If oyu don't feel that it's crying out to be musicalized, it probably won't be the best work you're capable of. So look long and hard for something that you love and want to do. Don't settle.


"We don't value the lily less for not being made of flint and built to last. Life's bounty is in it's flow, later is too late. Where is the song when it's been sung, the dance when it's been danced? It's only we humans who want to own the future too." - Tom Stoppard, Shipwreck

Think about things you've gone through. Or movies/books that really moved you. It's weird how inspired you can get from really obscure things. Check out the show Dead Like Me.
