I had three goals in writing Girl in Pieces: to talk about how hard it is to be a girl in a world that doesn’t value your intelligence or dreams, only your body type to write about a girl who doesn’t get better because she meets a boy, but gets to a better place because she works hard to find her voice and live her dreams and to write the hell out of this story. I never said, “Hey, I’m just like you you aren’t alone.” I should have, and I didn’t. I was inspired to write Charlie Davis’s story because of a girl I saw on the bus with fresh scars on her arms.
