Goodreads asked Ruth Rotkowitz:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Ruth Rotkowitz Inspiration just comes to me, all the time. I wish I had the discipline -- as well as the time -- to follow up on all the ideas crowding my brain. If I feel stuck at some point in a story, I just imagine several scenarios I could pursue until one seems right. Other times, I just have to wait it out. There might be a fallow period with no inspiration, but that spark always comes back!
