Where did the idea for the Blackthorn Key come from?
Kevin Sands
It occurred to me that apothecaries were pretty cool: they used potions, and poisons, and secret codes, and that seemed like a rich idea for a story.

I just finished the first three books of The Blackthorn Key series. It is officially my new favorite book series. I was dazed by how great the plot and characters are. I especially loved Christopher, Master Benedict, and Lord Ashcombe. Does all of the complex plots and twists just come to you, or does it take practice to create such amazing plots? (PS. It is my dream to be an author, that's why I'm curious:D)
