Goodreads asked David Zen:

How do you get inspired to write?

David Zen My books are formed at the intersection of my imagination with my experience as a dealmaker, investor and lawyer. The plots, which are meant to be entertaining, are entirely imagined, and start with a central idea. I create characters and details progressively around the central idea. Underlying the plot is real business experience, so that readers get a picture of what might happen in the real world (or perhaps a slightly more exciting version of it!).
