Goodreads asked Ruth C. Mitchell:

How do you get inspired to write?

Ruth C. Mitchell I think I was born with the idea that I would someday write novels. Reading carried me through the rough bumps in the road while growing up. I do remember being challenged by my First Grade Teacher, Ms. Powers to read the most books that year. I was tied with Capi Peck then a read just one more book for a total of 101 books. You can't be a writer without loving reading.
