E. G. Runyan It sounds silly, but think I would choose to fly! How To Train Your Dragon kind of got to me. I think it would be pretty cool to be able to be so high and go so fast. (:
E. G. Runyan The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan, Mistborn by Sanderson, and many more! My goal was to read 100 books this year, but I doubt that's going to happen. Hey, I tried. XD

E. G. Runyan I read books. I watch movies. I listen to music. I store little pieces and flashes from these different art forms that inspire me into my head...and one morning I wake up and a story is sitting right there, waiting to be written.
E. G. Runyan I'd go to Hogwarts and play a game of quidditch. Gryffindor forever!
E. G. Runyan Great question! I've always loved the mystery surrounding the Loch Ness Monster and I've always loved Scotland because it's part of my heritage (and because my favorite author, George MacDonald, was Scottish and often wrote his stories set in the rural highlands!). Both of those things are what originally sparked my inspiration to write this book. As for my reasons for writing it--firstly, I simply love to write. Secondly, I wrote it because I believe stories can bless and impact others, and my dream is to write tales that do just that.
