Goodreads asked Bryan Cassiday:

How do you get inspired to write?

Bryan Cassiday I don't wait for inspiration to strike. I grind out words even when I'm not inspired. I try to get a couple of paragraphs down, and, hopefully, they'll lead me into a story that inspires my imagination. The first sentence is important. It sets the tone for the piece. I'm a situational writer. My characters are caught in horrible situations that they must deal with. How they deal with their crises is what drives the story.
