Goodreads asked Danah Logan:

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

Danah Logan The idea for The Dark Series was born when I was writing short stories in high school, however, I never finished it. I didn’t get past the first twenty pages and eventually dropped it. Then, at the beginning of 2018, during a phone call, my best friend told me I should pick my writing back up. Until that point, I had never considered writing again; my focus was on raising my two-year-old twins. One evening, I dug through old back-up CDs (yes, people still have those) and found the original version of The Dark Series on a 2003 back-up. Names and locations have changed, but the base of the storyline—Lilly and Rhys, as well as “him”—has remained. About forty thousand words in, I realized there is no way to tell Lilly’s story in just one book, and that’s when In The Dark became The Dark Series.
