#WritersCoffeeClub Dec 1 : From where did the inspiration for your current WIP come?

"Starter Pack" is a spin-off of a throwaway sentence in the first paragraph of my previous WIP, "Ghost Engine", which bounced around in my head for a bit then cross-fertilized with Harry Harrison's "The Stainless Steel Rat".

I ended up with an elevator pitch: "The Stainless Steel Rat gets Isekai'd". (And next up, I'm taking a break before doing a submission grade draft for my agent to circulate.)
