Although Jaynell and Racine are different than my sister and I, the relationship they have is similar. I used those real emotions in my story.
This is the only time one of my stories didn't begin with the setting. The characters came first. When I first saw Caddo Lake, I knew it was the perfect place for Jaynell's story.
