Goodreads asked Ron Schwab:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Ron Schwab I cannot say that a particular mystery in my life would trigger a plot for a book. Like most writers, I do draw on life's experiences. As a former lawyer, for instance, lawyers find a way into many of my books, and some of my cases or the cases of other lawyers I have known stimulate ideas for particular scenes or a portion of a plot. I have never used a particular case as the plot for an entire novel, however.
