Goodreads asked Fay Risner:

How do you get inspired to write?

Fay Risner A very important woman to me was a former teacher that gave writers workshops in the local library about twenty five years ago. Reading books was nurtured by my parents from the time I could read. Sometimes I'd read a book and think I could write one like that, but where to start? The writers workshops was the answer. For years, the former teacher kept me on track by looking over my manuscripts. She encouraged me all the way and taught me what I needed to know to write a book. She didn't let me get discouraged and quit.
