Goodreads asked Monica Anderson:

How do you get inspired to write?

Monica Anderson Once I began committing myself to writing regularly, I found inspiration in my own self. I also find that doing something creative, making jewelry and crocheting, pulling tarot cards, blogging, and my podcast are all ways that keep the flow of creativity moving through my energy field and down my hands.
There are times when I know the inspiration that I find comes directly from my higher self or from God, helping me to find the title or the initial words to get out the thoughts in the right way. However anyone chooses to view it, for me there are so many interacting forces working in harmony with me to help me keep moving forward, right alongside my own sense of self-worth. I find myself inspiring, and not in an egotistical manner, but because I know how far I have had to crawl myself out of, how hard I have had to work to get to where I am, and I know where I came from, and to see myself get to this place, to who I am now, is an inspiration for me to keep writing because it fills my soul.
