Goodreads asked Steven C. Nelson:

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

Steven C. Nelson Cognitive Debris actually grew out of my dislike for reading. I always found it time-consuming and dull, but through the efforts of some influential (and persistent) family members, I discovered that it can be exciting and fulfilling. This made me want to create a book that would be approachable and appealing to those teetering between wanting to read and fire up Netflix. In order to achieve this, I made it a collection of short, disparate passages so that readers' interest would be continually piqued and they could feel a sense of accomplishment after just a few pages. It's also a mix of memoir, fiction, and poetry, not just because they were the best formats for telling the story, but so that it would have something for everybody.
