I remember being very young and reading The Box Car Children, and realizing the author had control of the events and the outcome, and that concept intrigued me. Now, as a writer, that concept excites me. Daily mindfulness meditation helps keep my "channels" open, so when I'm writing, my creativity can flow freely.

Victor Hugo was the complete inspiration for this work. His depictions of sorrow and tragedy captivated me.
