Goodreads asked Lisa Black:

How do you get inspired to write?

Lisa Black I have no idea! Sometimes I start with a setting, sometimes with a character, sometimes just something that I want to have happen.

Paige Turner asked Lisa Black:

Additionally, you identify the house cleaner who found the first body as having "brown skin" and Maggie's boss as black as she can "picture his long black fingers inching the bridge of his nose." WHY do you do that?

Todd Koralik
Todd Koralik asked Lisa Black:

Hi Lisa. My daughter, Amelia, is 9 years old and has already expressed an interest in forensic science. I told her about you and she is fascinated by you and the work you do. She has prepared a list of questions she would like to ask you. We know you are probably really busy, but if you had the time to answer them, it would mean alot to her. If ok, do you have an e-mail address she could reach you at? -Todd Koralik
