Goodreads asked C.K. Page:

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

C.K. Page "Recent" I'll take as the last published title. "Love, Death, & The After" arose from a sequel to a gritty novella I re-released with a new, exciting cover, and a real editor; "This'n Apocalypse Or Not?"

In a straight 72-hour fueled drafting binge, I veered off course into a different story altogether. At the same time, rapidly evolving advances in biotech, the ebola crisis in Africa and it's arrival in U.S., CRISPR-Cas9 technology and the curing of a little boy's cancer in London held my rapt attention. Monsters and post-apocalypse romantic relationships are two of my favorite things to write and read. Not only that, the "what if" pestered me incessantly: What would a post pandemic collapse do to an advantaged group of survivors? Keeping the fabulism feel that underpinned "This'n Apocalypse Or Not?" I had a unique way to approach that "what if?"
