Goodreads asked Tonya Lampley:

How do you get inspired to write?

Tonya Lampley Ideas just kind of come to me. I get flashes of insight and I think...ooh...that would make a great story. If I stay with the thought long enough, the characters start to emerge and the storyline starts to unfold. Typically, before I sit down to write, I have a skeleton of the story, including the ending. My stories typically explore love, sisterhood, manhood, faith, loyalty, fears, self-doubt...all the things that make us human. I'm always inspired to write about that!
