Goodreads asked Cathy Curtis:

How do you get inspired to write?

Cathy Curtis Because biography is fact-based, it's not a matter of getting inspired. Rather, you gather the research you've done and just plunge in. Like most writers, I don't know what I think about a subject until I start writing. Once the writing has begun, I find myself suddenly becoming aware of connections between disparate facts at odd moments in my daily life—which leads to scribbled notes that eventually find their way into the manuscript.
