Grace Galinski asked Lisa McMann:

I just finished your book Wake, and I thought it was great! I literally could not put it down, and actually ended up finishing it the same day I had started it! The entire plot was extremely interesting, and always had me intrigued. Although I did have a couple questions about it; what gave you the idea for this story? And were there any parts that you might have edited out of the book, that you wish you had kept in?

Lisa McMann Thank you, Grace!
I got the idea from a dream I had, where I dreamed I had entered my husband's dream and was watching what he was dreaming about.

There are no parts I edited out of the book. I almost never cut scenes from books. I'm the kind of writer who writes sparsely and I always have to add things, not take them away. I feel lucky about that. :)

I hope you enjoyed the whole trilogy!
