Goodreads asked F.K. Maddison:

How do you get inspired to write?

F.K. Maddison I used to read a lot as a kid, and then hit secondary school where reading for fun wasn't really encouraged (well, not in the school I went to). Then, in my mid to late teens my sister, Sarah, started telling me she had read some books she really enjoyed and encouraged me to read more often. So that, as well as some family friends who were always reading, writing and acting, sparked my interest, which made we want to have a go at writing, and just have some fun with it.
