It just happened, I had to get the words on the page. I started by writing the scenes I had imagined, developing the story as I went. There was lots of stopping and starting as I developed the world and the characters. There were aspects of the story I had originally written, but I realized they didn't fit how the story needed to be told. They were not the best way to tell Lennox's story. Once I let those things go the rest of the story came together. It was a lot of work, there were countless drafts, but I learned so much writing QOBAS and I am proud of the end result. (less)

“Lennox Adair wasn’t just any female. She was extraordinary. She was worth waiting for. I’d make her see that someday, that even if she was broken, it didn’t make her unlovable, she didn’t need to be fixed. Someday she’d realize every jagged piece of her was what made her irrevocably Lennox and that’s what made her so alluring.”
― Kaitlyn Swanson, Queen of Blood and Stardust
