Goodreads asked Allan J. "Alonzo" Wind:

How do you get inspired to write?

Allan J. "Alonzo" Wind Two bog inspirations: I met and chatted with Isaac Asimov at a science fiction convention in New York City in the early 1970s. I was amazed by his multiple contradictions and "shtick." Then in my junior and senior year at Stuyvesant High School for English I was selected to be in Frank McCourt's creative writing class. His stories which later were developed in his books were endless and a source of mirth and inspiration.
