Goodreads asked R.R. Surbier:

How do you get inspired to write?

R.R. Surbier I write whenever the muses inspire me, often including needing to get the dialog down at 2-4am-ish. I write mainly on my tablet and keep it with me most places. That way I can write whenever that next scene starts playing itself in my head, or the piece that will happen a few scenes later, or before. I rarely write linearly. Once I have an outline, my imagination often jumps around on that line, sometimes changing the line all together. (Kinda like a time traveler. :) ) So, I'm not sure if that says how I get inspired as much as that I'm ready when it does. Inspiration is to ethereal, that it's just there whenever I have a quiet minuet to let my imagination play.
