Goodreads asked Laura Taylor Namey:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Laura Taylor Namey How many of us use books to escape? I know I did so often as a teen. I wanted to explore the idea of a genius-level word girl who not only escapes through books, she lives her entire life and protects herself from the tough realities of her home through literature and the tried and true actions of book heroines.
