Goodreads asked Ivor Baddiel:

How do you get inspired to write?

Ivor Baddiel My brother is a comedian (and a writer as well) and when he was first starting, I used to go and watch him perform a lot. I loved the comedy world, but realised that I'm not really a performer myself, so thought I'd have a go at the writing side of it. Thankfully, people occasionally laughed at some of the jokes I'd written, so gradually I became more confident in my ability to write full time.
