He was inspired by his family, who were big on introducing books and music at a young age. His interest in writing sparked when his dad read goose bumps to him as a child. It inspired him because of the way it was written and how it made him feel. He wants to become a writer not only to make his family proud but to make people feel the way he felt reading his first book.
