Goodreads asked E. Jean Simpson:

How do you get inspired to write?

E. Jean Simpson I've always said that I should do a book. The old, if I had time, if I get the time thing. Well, I figured when the current sad situation came up, if I was going to go on about if I had the time, well...I had no excuse. I had the time. So, better to use it. Having some health issues of my own, I know that nothing is guaranteed and if you don't take the time when you're given it in such a in your face way, then you're just ignoring a gift. Guess it was a case of put your money where your mouth is type thing.
