Goodreads asked Horton Deakins:

How do you get inspired to write?

Horton Deakins My first inspirations came from listing to audio books on my long commute to my office. It wasn't so much that some of the popular authors inspired me, but I felt more of a challenge to write better books than they did. That's really saying more about my critique of some of their writings than what I created. I'll let others decide whether I succeeded.
