Goodreads asked Stephanie Barr:

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

Stephanie Barr When I wrote "Saving Tessa" I played with a character (Dylan) who really appealed to me as I was a very unpopular oversmarty growing up and, hey, now. I loved putting some of the weird ways my brain worked into the story and sharing it.

So, when I was thinking of that, I was also thinking of making that character female and putting her in a completely different environment, one where, unlike Dylan, she had no control at all. So, that's the concept behind my current hard science fiction novel in progress.
