Goodreads asked Kelly Antoine:

How do you get inspired to write?

Kelly Antoine Inspiration is rarely the problem. Everything has a story behind it. An unanswered phone call. A crushed flower on the side of the road. A lost tube of lipstick. An awkward conversation with a stranger on a bus. There's a little bit of drama in even the most routine experiences. A little bit of fate and heartache and catharsis in everyday living. The difficult part of writing is deciding which of these stories are worth the sweat that it will take to tease them out of hiding. Finding the discipline to memorialize even a fleeting emotional reaction to see if it can turn into something truly compelling.
