Goodreads asked T.D. Shields:

How do you get inspired to write?

T.D. Shields Usually it starts with late night insomnia. I start by writing a scene or two in my head as I'm trying to fall asleep. If it's entertaining enough, I grab my Kindle and jot down the details in the Notepad and email it to myself. Then I can spend the next few days refining and expanding on those notes.
