Goodreads asked Jet Lupin:

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

Jet Lupin I had a conversation years ago where it was brought to my attention that black and Asian men were severely overlooked almost to the point of aversion in the gay scene at the time(not counting fetishist). I never intended to do anything with this information, it just took root. I was working on my first book on another penname and wanted to take a break and work on something else during Nanowrimo and this just took shape. It's pretty much been Nasu, Phil, and Shige from the start
