Lyds asked Colleen Houck:

Hi Mrs. Houck. I am a HUGE fan of all of your books, and can't wait for you to write more. Your books have inspired my to write some of my own and I was wondering where you get your inspiration? Such as the different realms in the Tiger's saga and the Underrealm in Recreated. Thank you for any advice!

Colleen Houck My inspiration comes from lots of places. First, I read a lot. When I hear an author say they have no time to read I'm always shocked. I think reading is a huge part of writing. Reading sparks new ideas. I'm also a very visual person so I love Pinterest. I have secret boards for all my books and use images to inspire new worlds and creatures. I keep a large database full of ideas and phrases. Whenever I get stuck, I read through my list and something always pops out.
