Goodreads asked Valda Taurus:

How do you get inspired to write?

Valda Taurus Sometimes you can get inspired by sitting on the rock by the lake, and sometimes it is enough of a few raindrops, but surely, I get easily inspired by nature rather than by traffic jams. Often, my own experience, my emotions play me in favor. Writing is a two-sided process: mental and mechanical. If we are talking in terms of ideas, which is a mental state, then even if you don't have an ocean before your eyes, you can always create this ocean within yourself. From a mechanical point of view - yes, occasionally, it might be challenging to sit down and write these ideas. We are all humans and tempted to get lazy or moody - whatever. However, I don't like to chase after my inspiration. If I don't have any insights and impulses to write, then I probably have exhausted my experience and stopped dreaming, which means I have probably died.
