A Goodreads user asked Kasie West:

So I have read a few of your books and I completely loved them!! I was just wondering how you create the plot lines for your books. Are they based off real-life experiences? Or are they just imagining what something would be like?

Kasie West Thank you! I'm so happy you enjoy them. None of them are based off of real life experiences (at least not that I know of). That said, I have had life experiences (obviously) and read a lot and watch movies and have friends and family. So I use this accumulation of life events to guess how characters might act in certain situations, etc. :)
