Hailey asked Gena Showalter:

What Inspires you to write great books?

Gena Showalter I’ve been inspired in different ways for different books. Dreams, conversations, something I've seen, even had a book idea hit me after listening to a church sermon. Alice in Zombieland came about from passages of scripture: (paraphrasing) our battle is not against flesh and blood but against evil spirits. A grain of an idea gets me excited, and then I play connect the dots (asking myself why and how) and the story grows from there!
