Christina VanHuss (Cox) asked Lenore H. Gay:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

Lenore H. Gay This is a more difficult question to answer. The characters came to me as I wrote. First, I saw what they looked like. I thought about their families of origin and what part of the country they came from, their skills and abilities, their weaknesses.

Of course while working on the book, I deepened character and made changes based on interactions among the characters. If I wrote a sequel to the book, I’d consider whether a certain character could change. Were they capable of change? Some characters don’t change but they do move.
