This book was a pleasure to write. I had let go of the obsession with getting published and just decided to flex my writing muscles using a style of writing that had been used in one of my favourite books of all time. A book by Susan Howatch titled: A Question of Integrity. The book is told from the point of view of 4 people, and whilst this might seem complex to understand, it shows how much a story changes based on who's telling it. It's 100% fiction but the characters are based on combinations of my friends, one character represents 2 people and their characteristics. I think some of my close friends from around that time may be able to recognize themselves in the characters. The story isn't all sunshine and roses, the characters go through some tragic events but their friendship is able to carry them through it all. I hardly ever plan the endings of my books, particularly the works of fiction, but this particular ending surprised me. Those who know, will know why (lol!).
