Goodreads asked Katrina Ryan:

How do you get inspired to write?

Katrina Ryan Being busy with day-to-day life often distracts me from writing. My biggest inspiration, which pulls me back into writing, is the desire to tell a story. If I’m away too long, I begin to miss Victoria’s adventures in Atlantis. Her story has been a part of my life for over half my life, and she’s like a friend who is always there.

While I love the art of writing, it would be a lie to say I’m not also inspired by knowing that someone has read and enjoyed what I write. One of my proudest moments of my life was holding my book for the first time and realizing that I had created something, and this was only the beginning. When I watched Miss Americana (the Taylor Swift documentary) the other day, I could really relate with how she followed her dreams no matter what, and seeing others succeed definitely inspires me to write better and more than I have ever before.
