Goodreads asked Syreeta A Moore:

How do you get inspired to write?

Syreeta A Moore Reading good books. I'm a fantasy writer and my main audience is targeted towards teens, so I read books that teenagers read (Narnia, Harry Potter, Fangirl, Lost in a Book, etc) and I read fantasy (Lord of the Rings, The Last Unicorn, Wicked, etc). Some are boring as hell and others I wish I could breathe the story in because it somehow became my lifeline. I also watch good movies. Studio Ghibli is something else because their stories make you feel motivated, at home, and they have important messages that are expertly written in not just tossed at the end. I always feel inspired watching them. Playing Legend of Zelda is always refreshing too, and I listen to lo-fi music because that's my taste. They make me feel like magic is real and I am writing the whimsical truth that needs to be told.
