John Gwynne Hi Mikal, great to hear from you, all the way from Norway :) I'm so glad that you enjoyed Malice, and thank you for taking the time to let me know, I really appreciate that.
As for your question - what was my inspiration to write. I've recently written a guest blog on that subject, which I'll link in here for you:

The short version is that I started writing as a hobby about twelve years ago, a bit of me time amidst the whirl of life. Even that step was only made after some serious prodding from my wife and children. It still comes as a shock to me that Malice and Valour are real books, with covers and hardbacks and artwork! It's a dream come true. I'll let you read the article I've linked for the fuller story :)

Thanks again for getting in touch,

All the best,

John
