Goodreads asked Philip Warren:

How do you get inspired to write?

Philip Warren Almost any situation can be imagined into a scene from a great novel or a movie. When I write, I think in terms of movie scenes--some are short, some are long, some are powerful, but I can see the action and characters in my mind's eye as the plot develops.
