Goodreads asked Elizabeth Buchan:

How do you get inspired to write?

Elizabeth Buchan I have to wait (sometimes with a little panic beating in the chest). But if I keep calm, keep looking, keep listening, an idea jumps into my head and takes root. It could be a snatch of song, a line from a newspaper, a friend's comment... the main thing is to be ready to run with it.
