They had previously worked together on the short story Heuristic Algorithm and Reasoning Response Engine. The project temporarily died after Skarstedt completed a novel-length draft. Joshua Bilmes expressed the feeling that it was not currently marketable and at the time Brandon did not have the time to work on it. Some time later Brandon was interested in re-starting work on the project, however Skarstedt was going to be unavailable as a result of being deployed overseas.
