A Goodreads user asked Scott Semegran:

What methods do you use to keep yourself inspired?

Scott Semegran Couple of things that keep me inspired.

1) I read as much as I can. I watch movies and TV as much as I can. I listen to music constantly. I read and collect comic books. I go to museums. I travel. I spend time with family and friends. I spend lots of time with my wife. All of these things inspire me!

2) I make sure to schedule time to write and I try to make that time as enjoyable as possible. I need space alone. I need music most of the time to write, so I have my stereo or I use headphones. I need snacks and coffee and water. And if I have notes, then I can accomplish what I need to do in the hour or so that I write. If I can write 400 - 600 words in my hour or so of time, then I've had a productive session. If I'm undisturbed, then it's usually an enjoyable and inspiring time for me.
