Homework



I find the story of Erika not so good, because the group don't tell the story in conversation with the other people. There is Erika and she tells her own story. The other people don't play a role.

Hi Desiree!
When I wrote Coming of Age, Erika fell into the role of the "villian" of the story very quickly. I don't think I liked her very much. But as the story went on, I got to see the world through her eyes, and I could see why she was as mean as she was. I knew some "mean girls" like her, and I think with Erika, I was trying to show what a "mean girl" might look like underneath her bad exterior. I learned as I was writing the book, that Erika was actually very insecure. I've know a lot of people like that--mean on the outside to cover up how bad they feel on the inside.

I enjoyed reading your comments! Lorri Hewett
