Goodreads asked Eike-Henning Nießler:

How do you get inspired to write?

Eike-Henning Nießler Writing to me is as much a profession in which I wish to be successful, as it is a hobby I do to relax and enjoy myself. If I can't think of something for any given project, I write something silly, far out or experimental just for myself, with no intention to ever show it to anybody. Sometimes that sparks new projects, mostly it doesn't.
The point however is, that I never really have experienced the 'dread of an empty page' or 'writer's-block' per se.
