Malcolm Ivey:
What inspired you to write the characters of Maddy and Evan? How were you able to write the children so realistically?
Malcolm Ivey
I know a woman named Sheena who has children that are roughly the same ages as Evan and Maddy. I was able to spend a lot of time with them on the phone in 2015. They are two amazing kids whose inspiration transcends any story I could tell. They inspire me in real life.
