Goodreads asked Katherine Frances:

How do you get inspired to write?

Katherine Frances Well, probably reading. I advocate reading to children until I'm blue in the face, and here's why. My bedtime stories, as well as picture books and things more my age level, were stories like The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Secret Garden. Those are not kindergarten level readings, but my parents read them to me and I loved them. I think that's a big part of what made me want to tell stories. That's really where it started, story telling. And the I learned to write and it became novel writing.
