Goodreads asked Frank Morelli:

How do you get inspired to write?

Frank Morelli Usually I see something that makes me angry, upset, or feel like an injustice has been done to someone. That lights a fire under me and helps me to build the necessary vehicles to deliver the kind of message I'm looking to convey. Once the idea is in my head and I have the requisite emotion behind it (often anger), the only way to unleash my fury is by tapping words out on the page....and then I have no choice but to write until my message is fully out there in the world. That said, I don't often have the luxury of waiting for inspiration to come to me. I write even when I'm not inspired because you're not a writer if you're not writing. Like, all of the time.
