Goodreads asked H.P. Newquist:

How do you get inspired to write?

H.P. Newquist Every day is a new opportunity to write, so I don't need a lot of inspiration. As for as inspiration for particular books, that can come from reading an article in a magazine, a conversation about current events with friends, visiting a museum exhibit, or sometimes just sitting and looking out the window letting my mind wander.
