Goodreads asked Christopher Davis:

How do you get inspired to write?

Christopher Davis For me, writing "How the Grail Became Holy" was about trying to answer a question. After studying medieval history in grad school, I became curious about the Holy Grail legend. As it turns out, the more I read on the subject, I only found more questions and conflicting answers. I also noticed how there was an absence of books that explained the history of the legend, and what was available seemed to assume that anyone reading the book must already be deeply familiar with that history. When I could not find any books that matched what I was looking for, it occurred to me that it might be rewarding to write one myself.
