Goodreads asked Phillip O. Stanley II:

How do you get inspired to write?

Phillip O. Stanley II I've always loved to write. I can't sing, (my brother can), I can't dance, (my brother can), I can't draw or paint artistically, (yep, my bother can). But, I do have some ability to write, so I use writing as my artistic outlet.

Many things inspire me, it can be, a visual thing, or a moment shared between people, a distant memory or heartfelt emotion. These don't necessarily have to be pleasant visuals, moments, memories or emotions to draw inspiration, however I prefer the pleasant ones. I think daydreaming and a general lack of sleep help inspire too.
