I was walking out late at night looking for a coffee shop when a car stopped in front of me and out came someone I had dated a few years ago whom I haven't seen for five years. I was so surprised, because in the last time we had seen each other, I knew him to live in a different city and he knew me to live in another country.
That gave me the idea to write The Gay Seasons. Essentially, the idea was this:
What if the one who got away returned to your life in the exact moment when you're having doubts about the relationship you're in? Will you explore a relationship with the one who got away or will you stick it out with the one you're with?
From that, I recreated a back story for the character who would face that question in Book 2 of The Gay Seasons and I imagined his choices and how the book will end.
