Gretchen

The narrative's focus on Gretchen's inner world adds a layer of intimacy and intensity. I'm curious whether this approach was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The slow build really heightened the suspense, but I wondered if that was intentional or just how the story naturally unfolded.

Balancing these elements can be tricky, and I’d love to hear whether this was a deliberate effort to mirror Gretchen’s mental state or a storytelling choice.
