Goodreads asked Ned White:

How do you get inspired to write?

Ned White When writing for hire, my main source of inspiration is the challenge itself - to take other peoples' ideas and messages and refashion them in a way that inspires an audience. In the corporate world, good writers and good writing are scarce. My clients appreciate how the innovative use of language can simplify what they're trying to say and have such a strong effect on their audience.

Fiction is another matter. I was inspired to write all my books largely by people I'd come to know - as well as my own intrinsic philosophical bent. If I don't have any particular inspiration, I won't be writing!
