Bestselling Author Bernadette Marie writes contemporary romances and believes in Happily Ever After. The married mother of five believes in love at first sight, quick love, and second chances. An avid martial artist, Bernadette Marie is a certified instructor and holds a second degree black belt in Tang Soo Do. She loves Tai Chi, traveling to Disney parks, and having lunch with friends. When not writing, or running her own publishing house, Bernadette is probably immersed in a Rom Com, from which she will often quote one liners.

Such as one book I wrote (not yet published) is completely inspired by music lyrics that talk about someone tapping the brake lights just once as in to show hesitation from driving away. Music is a huge muse and I find that just the right few words can give me an entire book (or series) idea!(less)

I refuse to believe in it. I get "good writing" block all the time, but plain old writer's block? Nah...just sit down and do it, without worrying about what goes on the paper.
Bernadette Marie liked an answer from Cam Torrens:

Reading and listening to books and podcasts inspire ideas. I don't really get inspired to write--I just sit down and do it, 1000 ugly first-draft words at a time (it gets better after multiple drafts!)
