Goodreads asked Allynn Riggs:

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

Allynn Riggs Believe it or not, "The Blood, The Stone's Blade, #1" got its start as a short story I wrote when I was fourteen years old. The three main characters of that story, Ani, Kela and Renloret have stayed with me ever since. Though in the short story I didn't have a name for Renloret, that came about sometime during a college creative writing class when I actually needed to have a name for him. The Stone's also appeared in the expanded story at the same time.
