Goodreads asked Bull Garlington:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Bull Garlington I mostly steal them. It's super hard. I have to . . . ok, look don't do this at home, ok? But I put on a ski mask and black fatigues and I hide in the bushes under Neil Gaiman's place and take notes. He'll be all like, GODDAMIT! WRITING IS BLOODY HARD! and then he'll throw something and it gets pretty emotional for a few . . . I just hang out and troll Instagram for a few minutes and then Gaiman gives himself a little pep talk and then he's all like "I must read aloud, it is the only way to get the dialogue right!" and I just record everything he says then go home and change the names.
