Regarding the sources of inspiration for the writer or storyteller, Al-Dhaheri said: “When the writer awakes to remember that he is a story writer, in our life, which is full of the latest and many creative windows that may overlook a title or an idea, the writer must seize them skillfully and convert them into a text that can be transmitted to generations.” .

Al-Dhaheri continued: `` Some of my stories I wrote about people I knew, and when I experienced an event or left life, I was passionate about writing it down because I was afraid to forget it, and so I wrote (the death of a newspaper salesman) and other novels affected by the space they occupied and the space left by both. ''

For his part, Yuri Nichuritko said that the stories come from everywhere, and that the world is full of stories that deserve to be recorded, and pointed out that every person, event or natural scene carries with it many stories and tales, and the creator should draw inspiration from what his story is based on, and noted that Small events have as much impact on the writer as large.

“We are witnessing huge events in our lives that compel us to record our interactions with them. I once saw through the news bulletin the bombing of a mosque in Iraq, the event shook me and the ideas and personalities began to form until I was born a novel in which I expressed my position on such events ».
