Goodreads asked Bernie Dowling:

How do you get inspired to write?

Bernie Dowling As you go through your day you see and hear some fascinating stuff. You log that away in your head as something for your mind to chew over. If it keeps coming back to you that's a story. A friend reminded me of a story I said I was going to write 20 years ago. So I wrote it and dedicated it to him. If anyone is interested I can tell them where to find that story.
