Goodreads asked J.M. Phillippe:

How do you get inspired to write?

J.M. Phillippe I think it is a struggle sometimes to get inspired to write. Not to tell a story -- I always want to tell stories -- but to actually sit down and do the work of writing. There are good days, and bad days, and in the end it is the encouragement of a very dear support network that keeps me going. There is also this magical feeling of "flow" that happens sometimes where the work part of writing falls away and all that is left is you and the story and the words just come. That doesn't happen that often, but the times it does makes all the other times of staring in frustration at the screen totally worth it.
