Goodreads asked Sally Fernandez:

How do you get inspired to write?

Sally Fernandez My stories tend to develop as though a movie was playing in my head. So I enjoy writing the dialogue as it plays out in my mind. Oftentimes, I try to emulate my character’s emotions by making strange facial expressions or acting the scene out loud. I find when I step into the character it’s sometimes easier to put the feelings or actions into words. Fortunately, only my husband has witnessed me engaging in those strange antics. In terms of subject matter for the next novel, it usually starts developing in my head while I'm finishing up my current novel.
