Goodreads asked Clarissa Jacobson:

How do you get inspired to write?

Clarissa Jacobson Inspiration is for the lucky - when inspiration comes it is the best thing in the world. But most of the time, sitting down to write is hard and not inspired and you look at a white page and bleed onto the paper. And then you get going and it becomes fun and maybe the muse comes. But mostly writing, for me, and I think for many is about showing up and doing it whether you have inspiration - if I waited for inspiration I would never finish anything! :)
