Goodreads asked Mimi Rhine:

How do you get inspired to write?

Mimi Rhine I never wanted to write and I still think "inspired" isn't the right word. I saw this french boy on vacation and even though we never spoke a word his whole emotional aura triggered me so badly, I could barely keep myself together. And out of nothing, there was Checkerboard Pattern, Élias inspired by this boy.
