Goodreads asked Cindy M. Amos:

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

Cindy M. Amos When the publisher announced a novella collection for the 20th anniversary of the passing of John Denver, I jumped at the chance to write something based on his ode to Jacques Cousteau in the song "Calypso." I ended up with an advanced degree in marine biology and met Cousteau's son when he visited our campus. I threw in a little coastal research to keep the story-line authentic and gave the heroine my cluttered office! Going back to school where I first started writing was too fun! The premise in "Calypso Reimagined" is an oceanographer who falls out of love with the ocean!
