Goodreads asked Pixie Unger:

How do you get inspired to write?

Pixie Unger Spite. And yes, I know that's horrible.

I wrote little randoms snippets since high school, but only started sharing anything in 2017 because someone told me writing was stupid. Then I started writing original work when someone told me I couldn't. I set up a Patreon account because I was told that anyone will read free trash, but no one would pay for my stuff and I published when I was told that subscription readers wasn't the same as actually writing a novel.

I want to get better and the only way to do that is to put the time and effort in. Even in the last two years I see enough improvement that I want to go take down my fan fiction work. I don't though, because the people who left me encouraging comments were what kept me from quitting when people IRL told me that I was wasting my time
