Goodreads asked Brian McLaughlin:

How do you get inspired to write?

Brian McLaughlin I set a goal for each week and write when I feel inspired, usually on the weekends. Every night I go to bed, I fall asleep thinking about scenarios, plot, and the characters - if something significant strikes me, I'll jot it down. Those little insights and creations inspire me to write. Also, at least for me, I get inspired by the characters themselves...I hate the though of leaving them hanging! So I write to give them life!
