Goodreads asked Barbara G. Tarn:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Barbara G. Tarn currently, the latest published ebook is a novella called Cinder Boy. It's a retelling of Cinderella as m/m romance.
Next month (July 2016) I'll publish Quests Book 1 and 2 - the idea came from having three characters in search of a story. It was supposed to be a short story, turned out into two short novels. Book 1 has all three plus a fourth that was also in need of a story and who is the younger cousin of one of the three. Thus Book 2 follows the two cousins only. Book 1 is 45K, Book 2 is 35K, so after the summer I'll publish Quests volume one with both. And during the summer I'll write book 3, 4 and 5 about secondary characters who appeared in the first two books - or maybe not. Again, it's characters looking for a story and I'm sure I'll find what their story is about when I get to writing it down, like it happened for the first two! :)
