Goodreads asked Lindsey Byrd:

How do you get inspired to write?

Lindsey Byrd Sometimes I feel like the best visual representation of this is rain on a window. A droplet hits the pain, starts to slide down, then it connects with another droplet, then another, then another, so on and so forth until they stream out at the bottom. I'm not sure what the trigger is always, it could be as simple as hearing a new word for the first time. But once I hear that word, it connects to endless other possibilities and suddenly a story takes shape that I have to write into reality.
