Which is completely understandable. So to help heal your emotional wounds, here's a Q&A! Okay,  it probably won't be as fulfilling as reading the theoretical sequel, but it'll come close. Hopefully. Read on!

Q&A

Q: What made you come up with the story?

I've aways been obsessed with high school cliches. Don't know why. Maybe it's because I was underwhelmed by my own high school experience, and movies like Mean Girls, Easy A, She's the Man, and 10 Things I Hate About You (and more recently, The DUFF) have always been guilty pleasures for me. I love reinventing cliche's, so I knew I wanted to write something about one (or a couple), while still making it very smart and refined. I like things that can speak to people of all ages and backgrounds, so although I knew this would be a high school story, it was important to me to have ethnically diverse, dynamic characters. 

I LOVE alter-egos/secret identities and anime (blame my love of Ouran Highschool Host Club, Death Note, and Code Geass) so I definitely wanted to write something that also had a humorous yet dramatic vibe to it. So long story short, I really wanted to write a story about a girl going undercover at an all boys school,  but making it as smart/refined as it was humorous. And I think I accomplished that. :)
