Given you researched a singular event in great depth, and then wrote personal tales of suffering surrounding that event, did you find it difficult to let it go?
Similarly, does every hurricane that forms now affect you differently than they once did?
Not really, Writing the book was pretty much a desperate effort to get the storm out of my head into some form where I could make sense of what happened. I knew I was finally done writing it when I wasn't constantly thinking about the story and what else I could do with it.
How do storm affect me now? I just usually start to spiral into anxiety. I feel outraged that we never learn the lessons the storms try to teach us. Then I take Xanax and calm down.
