Goodreads asked Trayner Bane:

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

Trayner Bane I was working on a video game design as part of a potential to acquire a large video game title. My 9-year old daughter at the time suggested a video game title and, for fun, we tinkered around with the idea. She focused on game play and drawing while I focused on back story. She soon lost interest, but I couldn’t stop writing. At around 100,000 words I told myself, “maybe I should write a book series.” It’s been a wonderful experience.
