Having done my research, I knew that a nuclear explosion can easily be survived by anyone outside the immediate blast radius if they take the necessary steps, and I was struck by how consistently people living within 20-30 miles of Washington D.C. had the misconception that a nuclear strike against D.C. would mean certain death for them.

When I write I let myself go, I follow my character wherever he or she leads me. Then comes editing when you try to link dots discovering hidden ideas. A book is a journey, either reading or writing it. Of course, writing comes with work, but it’s enjoyable, nevertheless.

Honestly, pretty much every character is based on someone I know, and most of the events in the book did happen. However, it’s all just a leaping off point.

I decided it was more important to write what I’d like to read, rather than what I thought would impress people I thought mattered (they don’t). I write to have fun, and so my readers can have some fun, too.

This work is by far the most complex I’ve ever done. It spans four or five states, as many police jurisdictions and crime scenes, and there’s a whole raft of secondary characters. Simply keeping everything straight was a chore …

I thought about the parent-teacher dynamic—its highs and lows, and how we could all work better, together. Notes turned into pages, which turned into chapters, and The Overly Honest Teacher was born.
