Goodreads asked Howard Weiner:

How do you get inspired to write?

Howard Weiner I'm one of those people who likes to spin a good yarn. My first attempt, an early iteration of Bad Money, was originally written in 1992. Unfortunately, my career (and real occupation at the time) got in the way.

When I retired in early 2012, I no longer had an excuse. I had more than enough time and opportunity to write. Still, I didn't put pen to paper until December 2014. I read an article about the dangers and ill-preparedness of our federal government to detect and prevent the detonation of a low yield dirty bomb.
