Goodreads asked Robert Joe Stout:

How do you get inspired to write?

Robert Joe Stout By being alive. Seriously, what I see, what I read, what I experience is constant inspiration, not always a rose garden, like being teargassed in Oaxaca, joining an immigrdant caravan, losing my best friend to a heart attack. And by writing--writing creates its own inspiration.
