Goodreads asked René Friedrich:

How do you get inspired to write?

René Friedrich I have ideas, put them in words, sometime make changes to like the result better. I must like the result and think that others might like it, too. "How do you get..." makes it sound as if writing is the art of getting to (or from) some spiritual source, whereas really source is not the focus, audience and self are, because with that the choices are more obvious. "Source" is unlimited, it's too big for focus. Spirituality is in all, pick any topic you like! In sum, I get inspired by the idea that some people will like my creations, with past experience adding confidence. Happiness is inspiring.
