What about a week? A month, year, or forever?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I will forever hold a place in my heart for Anne Shirley from L.M. Montgomery\u2019s <em>Anne of Green Gables<\/em> books. I like to think that all my characters (and me, too!) have a part of her in them: her spunk, her curiosity, her sensitivity, creativity, and ability to be a good friend. I\u2019d love to live in her world\u2014to explore Prince Edward Island, imagine with Diana, and of course, meet Gilbert Blythe! I\u2019d also really love to live Cammie\u2019s life for a day, from Ally Carter\u2019s <em>Gallagher Girls<\/em> series\u2014being a spy sounds so much fun! Or be one of the Vanderbeeker kids\u2014Karina Yan Glaser\u2019s <em>Vanderbeekers<\/em> series is so homey and comforting.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What would you do if you spent the day with veronica? Where would you go to eat, hang out, relax, etc.?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019d definitely take in a baseball game. Load ourselves up with ballpark hotdogs and nachos and enjoy a game in the hot sun. (Once it\u2019s safe to be in a stadium, of course.) Even better if by then baseball teams have female managers! We\u2019d do some karaoke, get some ice cream, and then finish up with a move marathon. Whew! I\u2019m exhausted just thinking of it!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If Veronica were to hang out with characters from other books, who would they be and why?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Oooh, I love this question! I think Veronica would actually get along super well with Riley from my own book <em>Good Enough<\/em>. Although they\u2019re discovering balance in their own unique ways, they\u2019re alike a lot in the way they\u2019re trying to discover who they are, independent from those around them. I think she\u2019d love to talk sports with Annabelle from Laurie Morrison\u2019s <em>Up for Air<\/em>, Mikayla from Laura Shovan\u2019s <em>Takedown<\/em>, and Quinnen from Jenn Bishop\u2019s <em>The Distance to Home<\/em>, too. Oooh, I\u2019m loving this party!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What was your favorite bit of research you ended up not using?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For a while, I wasn\u2019t sure whether or not Veronica would decide to be on the travel team or not, and I did a lot more research about how specific tournaments were structured, how travel team schedules are made, where games are held, etc. I\u2019m so in awe of the effort and training all of these young athletes do and how passionate they are about their interests. Kids are amazing in so many ways.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What is your favorite quote, scene, or moment from <em>Life in the balance<\/em>?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I really love the scene where Veronica visits her mom in rehab for the first time. It\u2019s such a vulnerable, scary moment in so many ways, and I almost felt like I was treading upon something I shouldn\u2019t while writing it. I love how Veronica is nervous and excited and angry to see her mom and how that shows how kids can have so many emotions at the same time\u2014and how that\u2019s perfectly normal and okay.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Were there alternate endings you considered, or did you always know where the story was headed?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I always knew where the story would <strong>generally<\/strong> end up, but I changed a bunch of how Veronica ended up there. Whether she walked down one path a bit longer or made her decision earlier. Things like that come with time for me\u2014the first draft is for getting the basic outline of the plot down, the second is for discovering who my characters are, and all the subsequent drafts are about finalizing the journeys everyone takes. I love revising because I get to fiddle with my story. It can take a while for a characters\u2019 journey to reveal itself, and it\u2019s such an honor to be along for the ride.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Hearts-Divider-February-2021.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"70\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Hearts-Divider-February-2021.png 850w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Hearts-Divider-February-2021-300x25.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Hearts-Divider-February-2021-768x63.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10501\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/About-the-Author-February-2021.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/About-the-Author-February-2021.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/About-the-Author-February-2021-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/About-the-Author-February-2021-768x150.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-10742 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/jen-petro-roy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"186\" height=\"279\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_7\"><strong>Jen Petro-Roy<\/strong> writes \u201chonest books with heart,\u201d about kids who are strong, determined, unsure, struggling to fit in, bubbly, shy, and everything in between.
