Dawn asked Donna Everhart:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

Donna Everhart Hi Dawn - yes. Writing always takes me into the fictional world I'm creating, where I focus on the characters vs what's happening to me. When I was getting cancer treatments recently - for instance - I wrote to get my mind off how miserable I felt. I couldn't do it for long, but it actually DID work. I couldn't write as much while I helped my mother battle her cancer. I was spending too much time away from the house for the past few months, but I would think about certain scenes I was working on, jot down notes, etc., (so I wouldn't forget!) and then tried to use what I had when I could. Btw, I sent you an email the other day in reply to that comment you left last year. I hope you got it.
