Goodreads asked James Cardona:

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

James Cardona Novel and original book ideas are so hard to come by. When I come up with one I usually share it with my focus group (my wife and kids, that is) and typically they have heard of something similar before in one fashion or another. I have one right now that so far appears to be completely original so I am holding it real close to my chest.

My ideas usually appear spontaneously due to conversations or situations arising in daily life. I like to take concepts, ideas, opinions and conversations and extrapolate them or sometimes apply a Copernican shift such that it is dramatized, yet leaves room for dialogue and discussion.
