Goodreads asked Kate Kerrigan:

How do you get inspired to write?

Kate Kerrigan Almost everything inspires me to write, one way or another. Often, I will hear a story, or a snatch of conversation and it just gets stored away in my ideas bank. I carry a notebook with me at all times but although I write them down when ideas hit, I really refer to my notes – just the act of writing them down makes them stick in my brain. And I figure, if it's a good idea then I will remember it. The the two things that inspire me are usually nature and emotion. If I see something beautiful I want to describe it in if I feel something strongly want to write about it
