Goodreads asked Katarina Persson:

How do you get inspired to write?

Katarina Persson While working on a novel, I try not to take more than a day off from it, or I'll lose contact with my story. And when I'm not writing I'm constantly thinking of the characters and their background, what motivates them and why. Things like that.
Actually, most of the times I sit down to write I'm not that inspired but I tell myself to write anyway, because I've discovered that inspiration comes from writing.
I get inspiration to my stories from all kinds of things, but mostly stuff happening around me on a daily basis and my own reflections on the difficulties we all face from time to time in our interaction with people around us. We all have so many different kind of relationsships in our lives, and I'm really fascinated by that.
