Goodreads asked Marie E. Bast:

How do you get inspired to write?

Marie E. Bast I can visit a place, walk around, talk to the people, and soon story lines start popping into my brain. I always carry a tablet and pen around because lines start forming as I think about a story or a person in a story. I will also jolt down notes about scenery and setting.
