Upside Down, Inside Out

The Australian backdrop adds a unique flavor to the story, but I'm curious if the setting was chosen for a specific reason or if it evolved naturally during writing.

The lighthearted tone made some heavy themes easier to digest, but I wonder if others felt it sometimes undercut the emotional depth.

Switching viewpoints kept things fresh and gave insight into different characters' worlds. Was this approach planned from the start or developed during drafting?
