Ivana at Willing to See Less just posted an interview with me about inspiration, writing rituals, writing/mommying, and more.
Here's an extract from the interview:
Were Kat's siblings inspired by your experience of growing up in a big family?
Definitely YES. :) Her siblings are individually nothing like mine (for one thing, I have two younger brothers, whereas Kat has two older sisters and one much older brother), but I couldn't have created Kat's set of noisy, loving, aggravating, and completely beloved siblings if I hadn't grown up in such a large, close-knit family of my own. My brothers are two of my best friends, and that definitely influenced me in writing Kat's family.
