Goodreads asked Jennifer Ridge:

How do you get inspired to write?

Jennifer Ridge Usually with a scene or line that I want to use. I'll have a brief thought, think about how cool that would be, and move on with my day. Then I'll come back to it, again and again, until I'm itching to write the scene that contains it. Sometimes I'll approach it all logically--I have to know how they get into that situation, or I'll have to scrap everything--but I will occasionally just write short scenes or even short descriptions to be pieced into the story later.
