Goodreads asked Anna Maria Manalo:

How do you get inspired to write?

Anna Maria Manalo I traveled a lot all over the world first as a vacationer, then as a photographer. I eventually became involved in the Mutual UFO Network as an investigator myself back in 2008 when the UFO flap was on.

I began as a screenwriter, writing all the stories I gathered during investigations for film. Then I met a publisher who encouraged me to write nonfiction books after I adapted a few of his books for film.

I had harvested so many odd and bizarre accounts from people I've met overseas and locally here in the States that I just had to share them all. That impetus was all I needed.
