Goodreads asked Victor Ghoshe:

How do you get inspired to write?

Victor Ghoshe Since the 4th standard I have been a history buff. And that thing in me.... pushes me to read a lot about history and helps me to identify the gaps in between the lines of history - and as I am into a specific topic for over a month or so....... suddenly things start appearing differently. I believe this is the magic-moment for me - I immediately know - I have got something. It keeps on happening like a continuous process for the next several days.

then I start the study again from an absolutely different perspective. I develop research-notes and structure designs and I keep on sorting them and saving them in different folders in my mind – but my best plot development happen driving down the lanes, jogging, working on something different or running up the stairs. Like when I do other things suddenly the scattered pieces are kind of organised and I see things taking shape… chapters emerge…. suddenly life becomes beautiful....
