Goodreads asked Tonya VanWinkle:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Tonya VanWinkle The idea was inspired by my daughter when she asked if we could help a young lady she knew. The young lady reminded me of a bird with a broken wing, needing a little help in healing and learning to fly again. From there I added bits and pieces from my own experiences in life to it. For example, my grandpa was a preacher - Paul & Fannie Pearl Edmondson - characters in the book(s) are also the real names of my grandparents.
