Goodreads asked B. Romero:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

B. Romero The idea for Mové Lespri came from a Reedsy weekly short story contest. The prompt I chose was about an author who had an unconventional way of beating writer’s block. Originally, John was a food writer who murdered and ate people for inspiration. I didn’t complete the story in time (you only get one week) because I wasn’t really feeling it. It just didn’t feel right. I was going to delete it, but someone close to me begged me not to. I left the story alone for a few weeks and when I came back to it, I had a different vision for it—one that I really liked. My publisher liked it too and thus the Mové Lespri trilogy was born.
