Goodreads asked Alice Renaud:

How do you get inspired to write?

Alice Renaud Some of my ideas come to me in dreams, or from books I read, or from things I see. Years ago, when I was still living with my parents in Brittany, I saw a group of men come out of the sea. They’d been swimming, and they were wearing full-body wetsuits, with palms on their feet. It made me imagine shape-shifting mermen who could switch between an aquatic shape (with legs but webbed hands and feet) and the human form.
