Goodreads asked Alex Gabriel:

How do you get inspired to write?

Alex Gabriel It sounds odd, but what inspires me most is writing. If I sit down and work at it regularly, my mind will fall into a writing state of mind and automatically come up with more and more ideas. If I am too busy with other things for a while, though, my inspiration will dry up and I will be left fearing I'll never be able to write again.

There is no drama like that of a writer fearing the loss of their inspiration. ;-) Fortunately, by now I've learned that no matter how bleak the situation may feel in the moment, it will improve once I get back into the writing groove. I've mostly gotten over the "oh noes, will I ever write again??!!%&%&$$%%§$" vapors by now.
