Liane Neville asked Mary Beth Keane:

Your characters are very well developed and real. I love that they have so much depth. That said, when you write do you have a general plot in mind or do the characters naturally lead you in a certain direction?

Mary Beth Keane The characters always lead. I knew I wanted the end to offer hope, and so I kept writing toward that hope.

You write so authentically about dealing with alcoholism. Is this personal experience or did you speak to others for writing this?
