Goodreads asked Amelia Doherty:

How do you get inspired to write?

Amelia Doherty I like to use photograph prompts. These can be as simple or complex as I wish. Sometimes I focus on a small detail, or a huge photograph. Sometimes, I ask my family to say a word and then base a poem around it. Sometimes, it just happens.

People tend to get surprised that I will sometimes stop what I'm doing and write ferociously- but it's just a random inspiration moment.
