Goodreads asked Chris Dee:

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

Chris Dee The impetus to try a horror tale came from an unlikely source: all the retrospectives leading up to the Doctor Who fiftieth. The Waters of Mars particularly stood out; when that show pulls out a scary one, they do it so very well. I thought how it was time for a change of pace in Cat-Tales and the journey Poison Ivy had been on since The Gotham Rogues was ready to take a turn. It seemed a natural, and that was the impetus for the current story Spontaneous Generation. It's not what I would call a full out horror tale but more of a drama with horror elements.
