Goodreads asked M.D. Luis:

How do you get inspired to write?

M.D. Luis I listen to music sometimes. I actually listen to the words. There's great stuff in lyrics, it's like poetry. It'll inspire you in ways you never thought of. I also like to people watch. People watching helps me develop characters or small scenes. I love to see what people do when they think no one is watching. You should try it. The airport, park or some other public venue works great. You can use these tidbits of people's characters and incorporate them into your own. Realistic characters should come from realistic people.
