Oh, I love this question! I've been writing since I was in Kindergarten - diaries, poetry, short stories, plays...you name it! For me, writing has always been an escape, a refuge. Growing up, I had a difficult home life and words were always a safe place to be - whether I was writing them or reading them. I think books are, other than music, the best thing in the world, and I can't imagine my life without them. They have so much potential to open our eyes and our imaginations. They change us and heal us and save us. For me, there wasn't anything else that made as much sense for me to do. I was always an artist - I did theatre for a long time, which is another kind of storytelling - but I always kept coming back to words.

Hi Heather! I'll Meet You There was on my Goodreads "To-read" list forever, and I finally got the oppportunity to read it recently. It completely exceeded my expectations! I was just wondering if you based the story off true people or events in your life? Because I always heard it's easier to write about things you know, and you formed the lives of Josh and Skylar so elegantly that I felt you had to understand them!
