Goodreads asked J. Sydney Jones:

How do you get inspired to write?

J. Sydney Jones After a number of years writing, it's not so much about inspiration, but getting up each morning. It's what I do, day in, day out. But I do plan a lot for the next day as I am going to sleep, so I can start right off. Re inspiration and writer's block, good old Hemingway suggested stopping in mid-scene so you could pcik it up the next day without dithering around. I might have bowdlerized his advice, but something like that. It works for me.
