As I began writing Ivy's story, Hozier's Take Me To Church was just beginning its ascent up the charts-  it was not nearly as popular as it is now, and required some YouTubing in order to find the song because there was one line that kept repeating in my head over and over again as I wrote Ivy's story.   "I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife"   While this song - as per Hozier - is a song about love, this line specifically reminded me of Ivy's relationship with her father Lucas.
