A Goodreads user asked Jennifer A. Nielsen:

Hello Jennifer A. Nielsen it's me Alice again. I have a few questions to ask you. How did you get inspired about all your books? For me it's quite hard to get inspired to write a book. I'm Writing one right now. And the other question is: What do you do when you get stuck in your story that you're Writing because thats what happens to me sometimes? I Need your advice. I really love your books they are so fantastic.

Jennifer A. Nielsen Hi Alice! Inspiration comes from any number of places. For me, it's usually music, movies, or just ideas that pop into my head. If you're looking for inspiration, get in the habit of asking questions about everything you see. Story-related questions such as, "I wonder why she looks so sad," or "What would I do if I had to survive alone in this place I'm driving past?" I do this sort of thing all the time, and I think it's the reason I always have so many ideas. Stay curious.
