Like so much. I find them incredibly fascinating, the whole psychology behind them, how some people manage to get out from underneath and some don't, etc. It sounds like Shannon put a TON of time and research into making this seem realistic, so now I am extra excited to dive in! Thanks for the awesome interview!

All the luck with this new release. <br /><br />You know, Shannon, I kept journals as a young teen, too. I wish I was as comprehensive in my thoughts as I am now, though. Most of the stuff in those journals or diaries was about school classes or friends, not deep, internal Victoria thoughts. <br /><br />Great interview, Natalie. And thanks for the offer of help when my book releases. If I ever finish my memoir about attending college as a mother of 5, I'll certainly contact you.
