Smashwords Interview

What inspired you to write "Ten Years Later"?
I went through various periods of self doubt in the years after college. As I opened up to others about my frustrations I realized that nearly everyone, no matter their circumstance, was dealing with the same thing. That theme­­ visions of what one thinks life SHOULD be versus reality­­ really inspired me, and since I've always wanted to write a book anyway, I channeled that angst into writing "Ten Years Later."
How much of you personally is Carla?
A lot of readers assume Carla and I are the same person because we share a similar background; we're both New Jersey­based sports fans that are of Italian descent. Obviously, I drew on a lot of my life's experience in shaping a relatable fictional character, but Carla has her own set of unique circumstances that represent the plight of driven millennials everywhere trying to claim their stake in the world.
