She stated, "Children at E- Elementary are not allowed to excel." Yes, that's a direct quote. Probably the biggest contributor to this element of the novel is an experience I had with my daughters at a local public school when I questioned the principal about special programs for my girls who were bored and wanted a challenge.
Of course, the little things I've noticed in my life and the lives of my children fed into the story to contribute to an invasive future where no one is safe to pursue their own creativity, own thought process and own identity. Since writing the book I've had many people ask me how I did the research to write it. As the idea and the feelings of loss consumed me, I began writing the story of Brynn and her realization that her freedom had been stolen without ever realizing it consciously.
I like to do things spur of the moment, and living under this type of order and scrutiny was a horrifying and yet somehow realistic idea. As I saw the story unfold, it was almost as if the government spoke within my head, directing me in every aspect of life, invading my personal thoughts and dreams. A Note From the Author: inDIVISIBLE began as a disturbing dream in which the government had taken control of our lives on even the most basic level. Once removed, she must run to save her life - with a boy she barely knows, a boy who holds her future and heart in his hands. She knows to survive, she has to remove the one thing that gives her substance, security and transport, the one thing the Alliance relies on to track each Citizen of One United. What's worse is learning she's the next target on their kill list.
Brynn's utopia is shattered when she learns her life has been a lie constructed by the very government she's trusted to make her decisions for her.
