Goodreads asked Debbie Winnekins Deutsch:

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

Debbie Winnekins Deutsch Throw Away Sisters had been in the back of my head for a handful of years. It was being obstinate and elusive - always just on the verge of revealing itself, when one day it did. I wrote down the entire outline the moment it surfaced, so it couldn't escape again. I think sometimes book ideas are a culmination of events one has seen, read about, heard about, imagined or wished for, and they begin to surface when there is a common thread or a common denominator, or something that links the ideas together. Then it's a matter of filling it in with details, to make it rich, real and three dimensional.
