How do you get inspired to write?

Rusty Knight, Kenneth Shumaker Where do I get inspired? How do I get Inspired? Why Do I get Inspired? Am I inspired?

Humm inspired? I write because its in my head. simple as that.

I feel better, more alert and energized after a writing session, so that is my inspiration.

I write either in full silence with subdued lighting, at my desk with my desktop computer, or with rock, trance, electronic, orchestral or pop music playing, and bright lights, sitting at my desk with my desktop, or even at the kitchen table or any where with my laptop.

I have a specific filing system and server system I use to store my files. A combination of DropBox, Google Drive and a portable LaCie Drive, to store my files with my business. I use redundant filing, to be sure I never loose my work.

But the one thing I have consistent, is I write every day for at least two hours, I write over 70,000 words a week. and sit down with my editor Saturday and Sunday to go over all my work from the week, then I publish on Monday. I write seven days a week.
