Goodreads asked Britain Kalai Soderquist:

How do you get inspired to write?

Britain Kalai Soderquist Honestly, by reading other books. And watching movies... and playing video games... and watching my kids just being kids. Most of the time, though, it is because I am reading a book and I get so into the world of the story that I start thinking about what it would be like to put my own spin on a character or a magic system or some other element in the book. Sometimes I want to try my hand at the genre or a particular narrative method. Ultimately, though, I think my best inspiration comes from reading because I start wondering how I would do things differently, or what I could do to put my unique spin on something.

I guess technically that means I am inspired by questions too. I do love to ask and answer questions. :)
