Goodreads asked Bethany Bennett:

How do you get inspired to write?

Bethany Bennett The core inspiration can come from anywhere. A snippet of dialogue, an article, a documentary.
But it's what you do with it that makes the difference. I can't write only when inspired to put words on the page.
Building the habit of writing is how books are made, and I've had to learn that as a newbie. That means different things for different people. We all have our own process. Some write every day. Some have certain office hours. Some work in their words any way they can manage. I dictate a lot, usually while driving or walking with the Mini.
