A Goodreads user asked Stuart Gibbs:

Who mostly inspired you to become a writer?

Stuart Gibbs I always wanted to write, for as long as I can remember, so I suppose I have to give my parents props for supporting that. I had a teacher, Mrs. Elbin, who helped me get a book to a publisher when I was in first grade. (It didn't get published, but it wasn't that good.) That school also let kids write books and put them in the school library so other kids could check them out, which was a great thing to do for aspiring authors.
