Goodreads asked Jennifer Willis:

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

Jennifer Willis In April or May 2016, I was headed home from a meeting with my writers' group, and I was thinking about how much I wanted to write science fiction and how much my peers were urging me to give romantic comedy a try. I was crossing the Willamette River on the Ross Island Bridge when the central idea for "Mars Ho!"—a sexy take on a reality TV show to choose the first colonists headed to Mars—hit me pretty much full in the face. Sometimes, you just get lucky like that.
