Goodreads asked Robert Ropars:

How do you get inspired to write?

Robert Ropars Stories just come to me, but it's find the space and time to shut out the world and just write. I follow advice by Stephen King that I read years ago to write and worry about editing later. That's hard for me because I'm constantly fighting against the backspace key to edit/update/correct as I go. As I've moved into longer fiction, partly what's inspiring me is the interaction I'm having with more and more members of the horror film community. The many talented writers, directors, stars and others making today's horror are a constant source of inspiration to me to put as much content out there as possible. Quality content that hopefully will help me fulfill my dream of seeing a film adaption with my name up on the screen under "story by" or "based on the book by."
