Manon asked Gayle Forman:

In what way were you involved in the making of 'If I Stay'? Is there any talk of a possible adaption of 'Where She Went?'

Gayle Forman I was an executive producer on the film and I worked with the producer (Alison Greenspan) and director (R.J. Cutler) to find the best possible way to translate the emotional truth of the book and characters onto the screen. Luckily, both R.J. and Alison and the whole team at MGM, as well as all the actors, were all incredibly invested in the book, and loved it, and wanted to maintain its integrity, so it was a great experience.
