Goodreads asked Kelly Sorenson:

How do you get inspired to write?

Kelly Sorenson Usually by music. The Team Phobos Saga became a thing because I was listening to Exo-Politics by Muse and the line /When the Zetas fill the skies/ made me think of an alien entity completely surrounding Earth.

If not music, then the most random of things. I have the groundwork for a novel riffing on the rapture because a quote from Wayne's World popped into my head while Stairway to Heaven--see?! music again!--played on a co-worker's iPhone.

I don't question inspiration, I just write it down.
