While writing Child H, I’ve been thinking about how deeply a place can shape a life. The Glens is a fictional mountain region stretching across Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky, filled with farms, churches, and hidden communities. The Glens came from a place I love. Even when I’m far away, those mountains still whisper stories to me. What fictional setting has felt so real to you that you wished you could visit it?
