What inspired you to write Summer Change?
My debut YA novel, Destiny Road, had recently been released. After the buzz of the book launch and the excitement of that had settled down, I wanted to be sure I had the capacity to write a second novel. What if I could only write one book? What if it was a fluke? So, I started writing what became Summer Change. Thankfully the story flowed and I was able to create all these wonderful new characters.
