Goodreads asked Larry J. Dunlap:

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

Larry J. Dunlap When I was living through the six year experience in TWLitN, all of us knew we were involved in an incredible experience. When these six years ended, especially for me, the highs had been so high and the lows so low, I hardly knew what to think about them. But as all of us got older, I think we began to realize just how lucky we were to have had those years, and that we hadn't lost ourselves in the temptations and pitfalls so prevalent then. I think I always knew I'd write about those times if I got the chance to, but I had no idea it would become such a personal story. Even now, there are passages that are so emotional to me that I can barely read them. But if I don't invest that much into this story then I don't think I can ask readers to either.
