Goodreads asked Penny Goetjen:

How do you get inspired to write?

Penny Goetjen Writing is more of a compulsion than anything else. And I draw inspiration from all around me, particularly if I'm in a new setting, traveling and exploring new places. But I also get my inspiration from within, from my random thoughts and what-if questions. I look forward to sitting down to write. I never know where a story is going to take me. I allow it to pull me along. Very often "we" turn a corner and I'm confronted with something totally unexpected. I'm as surprised as my readers. ;)
