I so relate to your comment about being an eighty-year-old woman all your life. I feel the same way. When one of my mom's friends held me for the first time as a baby, she even said I was an old soul. Also, I really love the story behind your novel and what inspired it. That's a beautiful tribute to the people in your life who have helped shape you.
ha ha it's so true!! I feel that one in my bones too—old soul.
And thank you so much! I feel like so much of writing is getting to memorialize the people and memories that have meant the most, and it's such a strong motivator for me. I love reliving those memories, fictionalizing them and asking "what if." It's cathartic.
The fact that you drafted a story about the impact of friends and your friend actually giving you that final push to go for it feels like a beautiful full circle ♡
