Goodreads asked Tony Stowers:

How do you get inspired to write?

Tony Stowers Through my own life experiences mostly. I write every morning from just before dawn until about 8 or 9 am while my mind is empty and fresh and I just write as much as I can or the best that I can and when I get tired or lose interest, I stop and do something else. If you maintain that daily discipline, eventually you've got a couple of months of these notes and that's your book. Then you have to edit it all down and re-arrange it in an order that suits you, not in an order that so-called "professionals" tell you will sell. That's not art. Artists are supposed to set trends, not copy them.
