Goodreads asked C.E. Self:

How do you get inspired to write?

C.E. Self Once the idea takes hold in my head, I have to write it down just to get some mental relief. I have an entire list of future projects written down in a file on my computer. Any time an idea occurs to me I add it too the list. I put most of those off until I complete the project I'm working on.
As for the current project, if I get stuck in a chapter and can't seem to write more I just move to a later part of the book and write about a part I know. In my current planned four book series, with only the first book published, I have already written the entire ending and the majority of the overall series climax that will be in the fourth book.
