Goodreads asked Nigel Edwards:

How do you get inspired to write?

Nigel Edwards Um, well, I just get an urge to write (or type, rather, as even I can't understand my handwriting!) I don't always have any particular idea in my head. I simply sit down with my laptop, create a new Word document and then, well, just write. I mean seriously, that's what happens. I sit there until something goes click in my brain and I think, okay, let's give that a go. Sometimes (quite often) I don't progress more than a couple of paragraphs before I give up on the original idea. At other times, though, I just keep on writing and, weeks or months or years later, out comes the finished story.
