“I think it is reflective of me and my life but it isn’t necessarily things I have experienced,” she said of the book trilogy. “It’s things that I saw happen to other people in my life. It’s fictional but I had a lot of emotion. I felt a lot of empathy and sympathy for my characters. I was crying when I had to let one of them go. They were like real people to me but they’re a culmination of a lot of people.” (The first book installment can be found on Amazon.com)
