I like to write lol, I try and base my stories off of things that have happened even if it's in the wrong order or when it happened. Personally, it helps me to connect with the book to make it feel like a journal rather than a chore to do for people to enjoy it. I wrote The Boy With Unrequited Love because of a boy who broke my heart, I changed my friend's names up a bit but it's super fun to write so if you enjoy it then yay :).
