Goodreads asked Mark Cain:

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

Mark Cain I'd have to really talk about the entire CIRCLES IN HELL series, since the ideas for all started with that first book, HELL'S SUPER. I was in Florida, walking on a beach with my wife. At the time, I was working on an epic fantasy. I was also in a really bad mood. I turned to my wife and said, "you know, I'm not feeling particularly epic right now. I'm feeling snarky." So I started with the attitude of my protagonist, decided on Hell as the setting, and then thought what would be Hell to me. That was easy. Like my protagonist, I hate home improvement projects.

All these disparate pieces came together beautifully in a really funny book.
