Deborah Sigel asked Susan Mallery:

I've just finished reading Already Home, which deals with adoption. I was wondering if you had personal knowledge, either in your own family or a friend's. Thank you. Deborah Sigel

Susan Mallery Hi, Deborah. I don't have any personal experience with adoption, but I did a lot of research to try to get the emotions right in ALREADY HOME. I was making dinner one night with the TV news going in the background, and they did a story about a woman whose birth parents showed up one day out of the blue, and I thought, "But what if she never wanted to meet them?" I don't think I ever did get around to making dinner that night. I was too busy scribbling notes and story ideas.
