Goodreads asked Terri George:

How do you get inspired to write?

Terri George I couldn't say exactly; ideas just seem to come to me. I know that sounds vague, but it's true. Something pops into my head: a line of dialogue or a situation and it grows from there. I must be influenced / inspired by something I've heard or read, but it's an unconscious thing so I never know exactly what sparked it off.

An example is where Nick and Mia are at the nightclub (chapter 21). That whole 'scene' started with Nick saying "That dress is ridiculous.". That one line of dialogue inspired 2471 words. I love it when that happens!
