Goodreads asked Chris Page:

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

Chris Page Ideas normally just jump out of the shadows and ambush you. Who knows where they come from or why they lurk in shadows. King of the Undies World came about through some idle and facetious brainstorming with myself. The Underpants Tree came out of King. At one point, the main man, Hades Gousset remarks "Underpants don't grow on trees, you know", and a light went on in my head: Ah, but what if they do? I think there may be a not entirely surprising explanation of where Weed came from on chris-page.com which is an excuse to go visit it.
