One Day Soon

The book handles sensitive topics like abuse with nuance, but I wondered if there was a conscious choice to include uplifting scenes to provide relief. Did this affect the overall tone?

Some chapters had me tearing up, while others offered a breath of fresh air. Was this contrast intentional to mirror the protagonist's healing process?

The small-town backdrop felt so intimate and real. I'm curious whether the setting was based on personal experience or a deliberate choice to symbolize safety and change.
