Rip

The balance between darkness and hope felt very authentic, but I'm curious if that contrast was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The raw depiction of pain was powerful but also made me wonder how much was drawn from personal experience or research. How did the author approach such sensitive topics?

The way they found healing felt both bittersweet and inspiring. Did the author always intend for this character to be redeemed, or was that a development during the story?
