Goodreads asked T. HarRiMaN:

How do you get inspired to write?

T. HarRiMaN I don't. Hang around a newsroom long enough, and you'll never hear reporters talk about the inspiration to write. In a newsroom, you write because your brain obeys you, knowing that if you *don't* write, your editor will rip off your head and feed it to her koi. I apologize for the indelicacy of that last sentence--um, actually, no. It's pretty accurate. I sit down and write. That's it.
