Goodreads asked Ufuomaee:

How do you get inspired to write?

Ufuomaee By thinking. I think a lot. I imagine a lot. And sometimes, I come up with great ideas for stories or posts.

I sometimes get ideas while watching movies, tv shows or even while listening to music or the radio. Something someone says or does something, and I just think "What if?" and take it a little further.

I also get inspiration from what happens to me. My experiences. My feelings and frustrations with life. I imagine whole scenarios playing out and God gives me a powerful lesson...and suddenly, I have an idea for a story.

I have about a dozen stories in traffic waiting to be written from these ideas. I am just waiting on time to get to them. But I have more ideas than time :)
