When we first meet Casey she is reeling from the unexpected loss of her Mother and the break up of her recent relationship. I can certainly relate the loss of a Mom. Mine was my best friend, cheer leader and amazing woman.
Casey is a writer. In fact, she has been writing a novel for the last six years. She is one of the last of her wanna be writing friends that has not given up her dream to write. She waits on tables which allows her time to write but in doing so she is forced to live in this moldy room she rents. This by the way is the only thing she can afford since she has a mountain of college loan debt. She is literally at loose ends and ready to fall apart.
I admire her. So many people want to write a great novel, me included but sometimes even if you have the whole thing worked out, getting the characters through the story seems to be more difficult then you may have thought.
Two of my characters are still in hiding on opposite sides of the world. I am still trying to have their paths cross in a very subtle way.
Casey works really hard to get her life together. You should read the book to see were her journey goes.
