Goodreads asked Kathy Ivan:

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

Kathy Ivan I get ideas from everywhere. Maybe a news story. Maybe reading an article. Sometimes it's just people watching and wondering what's going on in their lives. I'm rare out of ideas for books, and when I'm wondering where to go next, a good brainstorming session with fellow writers will spark the creative juices flowing again, and then I can't wait to get back to the keyboard to tell it.
