Goodreads asked J.W. Murison:

How do you get inspired to write?

J.W. Murison I think if you are an avid reader its something that comes naturally. One day you are going to read a book that is insipid and uninspiring and think to yourself that you could do better. That's what happened with me.

Goodreads asked J.W. Murison:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Matt
Matt asked J.W. Murison:

I've read most of your books and enjoyed them, but there are a lot of spelling issues that can't be blamed on UK vs. American english reader's error. What's is the process for sending your books in for proofreading and fixing any mistakes?

Matt
Matt asked J.W. Murison:

No worries; with the value you give your readers none of that is a big deal. I asked about proofreading because the books you've had proofread aren't any cleaner than your other books. Do they give you an edited copy of your book, or give you suggested corrections? If they do give you a finished version, than you should hire someone else or not bother and save your money. Thanks for your time, and for your work.
