Goodreads asked Faiz Yusuf:

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

Faiz Yusuf I have been writing "Midnight Sun" for the last three years. I was repeatedly told that poetry doesn't sell and honestly, that was a little demotivating. However, it was later I had this epiphany that if I do this right, no matter what the genre it pertains to, it is going to do well. Since I always believed that autobiographical poetry is something I do best, I kept writing about the paradoxical mannerisms of the world and came up with this concept of the book.
