Goodreads asked Tricia Murphy:

How do you get inspired to write?

Tricia Murphy By reading "Alice in Wonderland" as a child. I was then inspired to write a poem called "The Strawberry Queen" which my headmistress told me was rubbish and if I wrote stuff like that in my 11+ Exam, I would most certainly fail. I was one of only two children in my class who did pass!
