Goodreads asked Vicki Lännerholm:

How do you get inspired to write?

Vicki Lännerholm The process of writing. The ideas are endless but it's the processing of them that intrigues me. It's like getting handed a lump of clay and poking at it until it takes shape and introduces itself to me. Although my published works are non-fiction, I do spend time writing short-stories of fiction. Perhaps I will release them at some point as well. My inspiration comes from nostalgia, mystery, and life experiences, mine and others.

My non-fiction work continues to be inspired by problem-solving the human condition beyond pathology. Too much of mental health information today is simply hype, labels, checklists, and scores. In most cases I find that people need understanding, not a diagnosis. As a Reality Therapist I'm inspired by an internal passion to deliver more useful and less complex solutions and information.
