Goodreads asked Scott Craven:

How do you get inspired to write?

Scott Craven My desire to write came with my love of reading. I dug into Winnie-the-Pooh when I was little, and not just because I could say stuff like "Mom, have you seen my Pooh?" and not get in trouble. But the turning point was the 13-year-old boy nestled into a beanbag chair and absolutely riveted by "The Exorcist." When I finished it over a weekend of solid reading, I had two thoughts. First, "I really want to write a story like that." Second, "This house needs more lights."
