Goodreads asked Paul MacAlindin:

How do you get inspired to write?

Paul MacAlindin I inspire me to write. This is pretty egotistical, but unless I can see a possibility to change or evangelise about something, I don't get worked up enough. My inner conviction that people, given a snowball's chance in hell, can be wonderful, and that I can help a little, is what matters. I am also an advocate of trying, however painfully, to extract nuggets of wisdom and insight from life. There are too many people who bumble through life without ever having done the hard work of acquiring either.
