An author should never tell their secrets, but I will let you in on some facts about Shadowbrook and how it drastically changed throughout my writing journey.

🧛‍♀️ Fun Fact One - Originally, Erika's name was Ava.

🧛‍♂️ Fun Fact Two - Erika was twelve in my first draft, but I had to change her age because of romantic interests.

🧛‍♀️ Fun Fact Three - The title of my book came after I finished my very first draft. The original name was, "The meaning of life." (Oh, how I cringe).

🧛‍♂️ Fun Fact Four - There was supposed to be a love triangle for Erika, but things changed, I guess. I also didn't want to stick with obvious cliche themes.

🧛‍♀️ Fun Fact Five - I started writing my first draft at sixteen. I've been writing this for ten years now. (Yes, I'm really that old).

🧛‍♂️ Fun Fact Six - There are a lot more characters I couldn't fit into this book, but don't worry because they will make their appearance in the sequel.
