Goodreads asked A.L. Davroe:

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

A.L. Davroe The short answer for how I got the idea for NEXIS is that my agent and the owner my my agency at the time threw the idea of Steampunk Cinderella at me. I got the idea for a Cinderella character who loses both her legs instead of shoes and ends up with crazy gadgets for legs instead. However, that quickly turned into a whole different monster and, as you can see, NEXIS is nothing like that now.
