1) It took me 11 months to write the first draft. Then it took me 1 year to edit it from start to finish (1st time).
2) I wrote just under half the book in school when I should have been revising for my exams. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
3) The first character that I came up with was Vicky, but the very first thing that came into my head was the ring Xander gave her.
4) I came up with the story in the shower and recovering from the flu.
5) I don't usually have face claims for my characters, but I thought either Matthew McConaughey or Andrew Lincoln could be good Kyle's.
6) Levi wasn't in the first draft.
7) While I was planning out the book, I thought it should have had a happy ending. And then I thought, "Nah."
8) I have a few ideas for a companion novel for the trilogy.
9) I don't usually base characters off people I know, but Adam is an amalgamation of my brother and my dad.
10) There's a small piece of me in every one of my characters, but the one I relate to most is Vicky.

That's it! If I think of more I'll write them down here, but I hope you enjoyed knowing a little behind-the-scenes to when I was writing the book! 😀
