Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ asked Hazel Edwards:

How do you get inspired to write?

Hazel Edwards I work in three major ways. Participant-observation , which is researching in a new location, knowing I'll be wriitng about it afterwards, 'What if?' which is fanciful fiction and collaborating with another skilled in that field.

I also keep an ideas notebook: digital these days.
Having a co-writer ensures you do your share before you meet them again.
Recently I co-wrote 'Trail Magic: Going Walkabout for 2184 Miles on the Appalachian Trail' with my son, but he did ALL the walking.

I've also co-written with psychologist Dr Helen Mc Grath on print books 'Difficult Personalities' and 'Friends; How to Make and Keep Them' and these have now become e-books too. So a good idea which inspires a book, often goes into new formats, if readers continue to demand it.
