Story Behind The Book

Katie was the character that started the Loving Her series, and from which all the other characters came. She was the base for this entire collection of stories and characters. One Friday night at pizza parlor, I saw a cute, short blonde girl weaving her way through the crowd to tend to her tables. That brief moment is emblazoned in my memory. It lasted only seconds, but it was a great moment from which to start these 8 stories.
