Goodreads asked Patty Wiseman:

How do you get inspired to write?

Patty Wiseman I am a creator of habit. I set my day up as if I was going to my day job. I'm retired now, so it IS my day job. I take the first hour for social media and then go to my writing. After lunch a write a couple more hours. Evenings are set aside for family, but I am never idle in my mind. No matter what I'm doing, I look at it from a writer's perspective, so by the next day I have new inspiration. Some people need music or silence or other types of inspiration. I just need to be on an organized schedule.
