Goodreads asked Mala Naidoo:

How do you get inspired to write?

Mala Naidoo Voices and visions of past encounters often trigger the compulsion to write. Reading is paramount in motivating the writing urge which depends on whether the muse is present. Sitting in a quiet place, often at my writing desk, away from the distractions of daily life, meditating, contemplating and drafting ideas in my journal ignites the process.
