Goodreads asked Mark Boyd:

How do you get inspired to write?

Mark Boyd In my world, inspiration comes with the desire to tell a story. Part of that inspiration also comes with reviews on the story you're telling. Should they not be good, then learn from your readers. Remember...you'll never please everyone and reviews are just opinions. But, play to the majority. Inspiration for me also comes at night or 2 to 3 am, when I'm getting bombarded by the movie. Learn, read, be open to criticism, and listen to your story tellers in your mind. They're waiting impatiently for you to start typing.
