But writing books? Never thought I could do something like that. I mean, I’ve loved to read my whole life and I took creative writing in high school. We know that you’ve had an incredibly successful career as a baker but when did you know you wanted to write books, too? And this book is about Sloan moving forward, and rediscovering the parts of herself that she recognizes. It’s a journey, not a destination, because you never really get over it. You can have good days and then bad ones again. You can take steps forward and then fall back. There’s no one thing that makes it better. I wanted to heal her, put her back together again, make her someone I recognized. I wanted to do for Sloan all the things that I couldn’t do for my friend. When I looked back on writing this book, I realized that it was my way of working through my own feelings of loss. Something inside of her had been disrupted and she couldn’t seem to figure out how to get herself back. She took showers and cleaned her house and functioned. Two years after his death, she was past the initial devastation. I remember thinking what a strange in-between place she seemed to be in. A close friend of mine lost her husband unexpectedly and I watched her struggle for years with complicated grief. The theme of the book was actually inspired by real-life events. was the inspiration behind The Happy Ever After Playlist?
