Jeanne Perino
Jeanne Perino asked Elizabeth Gilbert:

What do you do to spark creativity?

Elizabeth Gilbert I follow every single tiny insignificant thread of curiosity that falls in my path, as if I am on the scavenger hunt of a lifetime...because I am.

Hunter Burgtorf asked Elizabeth Gilbert:

Hi Liz! I've loved all your work, and recently just saw the interview you did with Marie Forleo. It was AMAZING! You made me laugh, cry, and feel so much in the time you shared about inspiration. Everyone talks about following passions and the dream happening, but not so many talk about the work it requires to get there. Thank you for your honesty and congrats on Big Magic! What was your favorite part of writing it?

Elly Zhilyak
Elly Zhilyak asked Elizabeth Gilbert:

What is your biggest inspiration to write? And is it an inward calling?

Artemisa
Artemisa asked Elizabeth Gilbert:

I'm not a writer, but I love to write and have a story to tell. I dont know if it's fear of not being good enough, but I can't get myself to write down my story. What advise can you give me to just do it!! or any habits you have that are useful?
