Goodreads asked Mark Pendergrast:

How do you get inspired to write?

Mark Pendergrast Writing is really just like talking to someone from a distance, so it's important that you have something important to say. So far, I have written nonfiction adult books (other than 3 children's picture books, for fun) about topics that interest me and that explore important topics. In my case, those range widely, from the history of Coca-Cola, coffee, and mirrors, to disease detectives of the CDC, to renewable energy, to false memories and convictions, and more.
