Goodreads asked John Riherd:

How do you get inspired to write?

John Riherd Sometimes I have been percolating a scene in my mind until it has to get written down to make room for new ideas. However, most of the time inspiration means sitting down and start putting words in place regarding my characters. Eventually a lovely sentence will be birthed and the writing will flow easily until my coffee cup has been empty for too long. Then, I get some coffee, sit down,and start putting words in place on the screen.
