Goodreads asked Laurie Lisa:

How do you get inspired to write?

Laurie Lisa Every good book inspires me to write! However, I would have to say that John Irving and Joyce Carol Oates have provided the most inspiration. Their characters are fully realized and complex. Also, each of their novels is different and creates a new world populated with unique characters. I have completed seven novels, and I am about done with my eighth, and each of them is different. Like Irving and Oates, I strive to make my characters fully realized and complex.
