Goodreads asked David Tallerman:

How do you get inspired to write?

David Tallerman These days I tend to develop most of the core story at the planning stage, and when I'm writing I work set hours with set deadlines. Since I already have a fairly good idea of what I want to say from the chapter plan, inspiration isn't so much of a concern, and since I'm sat at my desk, in my office, on a work day, I've no choice but to get on with it!

Failing that, a cup of coffee or a glass of wine never hurts, and I always work to music.
