Goodreads asked Simon Strange:

How do you get inspired to write?

Simon Strange My husband. It's goofy, but hey - I write a lot of erotic fiction. We've got a super healthy marriage.

I also read a lot. I go back and revisit my favorite authors' works sometimes to kind of absorb some of their style, if it applies to what I'm working on. I put stickers on my hard copy books to mark them for different kinds of projects. You can never duplicate someone else's style, no matter how hard you try - but by trying, you develop new aspects to your own style.
