Goodreads asked Sam Hooker:

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

Sam Hooker Why did I just walk into this room?

I must have had a reason, but for the life of me, I can't think what it might have been. Did I forget for innocent reasons, such as time's deteriorative effect on the brain? Or was I made to forget by some sinister and secret power who lurks in the shadows and siphons off my short term memory?

That's rather flattering, actually. To think that I'm sufficiently powerful to force unimaginable terrors to hide in the shadows, fearful of what I might do if I discovered them! Perhaps I wield a great and terrible power that I have yet to-

Wait, no. I left my book in here.
