Christopher Steinsvold:
Did the inclusion of philosophy topics in this book just happened by accident due to your background or was it all planned from the beginning?

O wow, I completely missed this. Sorry! I am not familiar with Goodreads.
First I got the initial premise of the story [A message suddenly appearing on the moon], and started to write it. Soonafter, I realized I could weave in certain philosophical ideas I had thought a lot about on my own. This energized my writing and gave me a solid direction.
So, it is safe to say it was planned from the start (although the planning was mostly in my head and fuzzy (I am a pantser!)).
