Goodreads asked M. Joseph Murphy:

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

M. Joseph Murphy Demons of DunDegore is an idea that first came to me back in Grade 10 English. Every day we had to sit and write in a journal for 30 minutes a day. Many people wrote nonsense or diaries. I figured if I had to write for 30 minutes a day for the whole school year I might as well have something to show for it.

The novel I released is vastly different than what I wrote back then. Originally Grandwyn was a 20 year old cleric in a pure D&D universe. Now he's an 8 year old with magical powers in a universe I created. But the ideas and the title are the same.
