Like, why am I working years on all these pages and all that?

And I was like, this is the best.

I'm going to just be a script writer now.

So I was trying to write the early version of what became Social Animals was a script.

It was sort of, I had the characters of Val and Alex, and it was sort of a female buddy comedy where they were trying to solve a crime together.

Pretty quickly, I figured out

It wasn't going to work.

It wasn't working.

And that I actually am a novelist.

I got really attached to the characters.

And I thought, I'm going to write a novel for these characters.

So I actually pulled them out, pulled them right out of that script, created a new plot.

And that was how I started writing the novel that would become Social Animals.

Yeah, you want to reach out when a reader least expects it and just grab hold of their heart, right?

Like that's how I think of it.

And if you're writing a script, there's just not the opportunity for that.

And I sort of missed it.

What I love about, and your writing style is this way too, I think you're writing stuff and the reader's like, I'm having a good time, I'm having a good time.

And then all of a sudden, oh, I'm feeling feelings, you know?

And I love that.
