David Pablo Cohn
It's not a matter of getting inspired to write, really. It's a matter of forcing yourself into the habit of just sitting down and doing it, like going to the gym every day. You sit and you write. Maybe you reward yourself for it with a cappuccino or something, but you force yourself to do it. And most days you turn out pages of utter crap that you're going to throw away, but you keep putting words down on the page because every once in a while some of those words glimmer with a spark of something. And when they do, you can circle back and fan the spark into a flame and build it into something that *is* inspiring.
