Goodreads asked Jennifer Wright-Berryman:

How do you get inspired to write?

Jennifer Wright-Berryman I write a lot as a professor, however, writing fiction novels is an entirely different exercise. Prior to The Dying Five, I wrote a book that I never published. That book was about the process, a way to learn. And learn I did. I also learned a great deal writing TD5 and I continue to be a student of writing fiction (I always will, as should every author at any stage).
I get inspired to write when I see things happening in the world that need a voice. I'm not here to say I have the right voice, but I do my absolute best to honor the experience of those who can be found in my books.
