Goodreads asked A.K. White:

How do you get inspired to write?

A.K. White I get inspiration from every aspect of living. From things that have happened to me, things I've heard about, people I've met, ideas that I wonder about, situations that have made me feel strong emotions, and from asking questions. I also get many ideas from my dreams; I have copious vivid, recallable dreams - some of them are complete stories on their own (one such story, A Walk Down the Mountain, I submitted to the CBC Short Fiction competition - wish me luck), and others are simply fragments or seemingly random ideas. I take what I get and use what I can.
