What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Julie
Julie asked F.G. Cottam:

Hi, Mr. Cottam. How are you? I really would like to know Max's surname from The Resident. I don't know why, but I really wonder his surname and try to find suitable one for him, but I thought maybe you would like to answer for me.

 Kelly
Kelly asked F.G. Cottam:

Hi there! I would love to know where you get your ideas/inspiration from? I notice that a few of your books have historical "elements" to them, or are set around things which may (or may not have) happened in the past.

A Goodreads user
A Goodreads user asked F.G. Cottam:

have you ever been a boxer or seriously into sports? was university always in your life plan or did you do something else before? The House of Lost Souls is one of my favorite books. so well thought-out and developed.. it reminds me of O.Onions, The Beckoning Fair One.
