Goodreads asked Susan Lee Kerr:

How do you get inspired to write?

Susan Lee Kerr Sometimes I just burst to capture something and to share it. I've always wanted to write. Maybe I might have done something else creative, but my father was a dedicated journalist and my mother an avid reader, so it had to be writing for me. It was a long apprenticeship, from copywriting in the beauty industry to freelance feature journalism to non-fiction commissions to teaching to... at last, novels. And poetry.
