The author has stated that "Biomass Effect came about after reading a lot of alternate first contact stories for various Mass Effect fics. I happen to like these kinds of stories and wanted to take a shot at it myself. I was always interested in biology, but couldn't think of a way to use that interest as much as I wanted, until I thought of Prototype. I simply took Prototype to its logical conclusion if the virus got really out of hand. It snowballed from there. It is probably my favorite story to write because I put a lot of my beliefs into it. Such as my transhumanist ideals. It is without a doubt my most popular story as well, and I love getting feedback from all of you as it goes on. So thanks for that, you rock."[3]
