Goodreads asked Larry Gottlieb:

How do you get inspired to write?

Larry Gottlieb I honestly don't think it works like that. The question presumes there's something one can do to get inspired. For me, inspiration comes from asking questions and then opening oneself up to the answers. I believe the universe is always ready to answer our questions, but one has to be in a place of receptivity in order to hear those answers. And in order to do that, I have to relinquish what I already know about the subject so I can hear something new. That "something new" is what I consider inspiration.
