Victoria Budkey asked Gail Carson Levine:

In Bamarre, are Meryl and Addie based on anyone in your life? They're a wonderful pair!

Gail Carson Levine Thank you! They're not from life. I made them up to complement each other in a way that isn't very different from developing characters who will fall in love in a romance.
