Goodreads asked Stephen B. Seager:

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

Stephen B. Seager I wrote about a year in my life at work. I work at Napa State Hospital one of the largest forensic state mental hospitals in the country. I wrote about how dangerous it is for the staff but more importantly for the patients. People don't know how dangerous it is inside that big tall fence. My book tells you what it's like to live and work there. It also tells you the stories about the people, the tragic stuff and the funny stuff. You don't specifically have to write about what you know but it really helps. I do that.
