>How do you guys find the motivation to write a book?
For me it all has to stem from a theme that makes me lose sleep. If I can discuss it for hours, it is enough to inspire me to create a story with.
>How do I come up with a setting?
I brainstorm what settings it could be in and weigh the merits of each. Constrained by the genres I am willing to do.
>What's should be the motive of my protagonist?
Your protagonist's motivation can be something he doesn't even necessarily understand, but something that you understand. If you already have a conflict in the story, try to imagine different motivations that might bring that character into conflict, and what he might have to realize or change to overcome it.
>Is is good to have a villain that's not a human?
It depends on the kind of story you are doing. You can have multiple antagonists for different aspects of the plot, and none of them have to be outright villains. In other words, your antagonists don't have to hate the protagonist to stop him from getting what he wants.
