Goodreads asked Andrew Puckett:

How do you get inspired to write?

Andrew Puckett Always loved reading. I've loved detective stories since I was eleven and came across Miss Marple and the Thirteen Problems. Also love good thrillers ie, crime thrillers. Wanted to write since ... I don't know ... was told I was good at school aged seven. Realised I wanted to at age 17.
The first book I wrote was inspired by waiting for a friend to turn up in a rough pub in Bristol. He was late, and several dodgy characters "approached" me. Gave me the creeps, and also the opening of the book. He did turn up eventually.
