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

Tom Epperson Seven or eight years ago I read an article in the L.A. Times about a young journalist in Somalia named Mohammed. Somalia is a chaotic country and Mohammed had made enemies with his stories. One morning Mohammed received an anonymous phone call. He was warned that he had two weeks to leave the country or he would be killed. I knew instantly that this was a great beginning for a novel, and the result was Roberto to the Dark Tower Came, which is coming out in May. And yes, Mohammed left the country before his two weeks were up.
