Are Wallace, Hugo, Mei, Nelson, or any of the other characters in the novel inspired by or based on specific individuals? I found some semblance of peace by the time I finished. I felt trapped by it for the longest time, and so I did what I do best: I wrote through it. Though there are other inspirations-specifically Dicken’s A Christmas Carol-I wrote this story because I wanted to explore the depths of my own grief, and face it head on. My own that I’ve lived through, that damnable feeling that never really seems to go away, even if it does lessen with time. To make a long story short, grief was the inspiration for this book. What was your inspiration for Under the Whispering Door? His latest novel is Under the Whispering Door and he recently talked about it with Daryl Maxwell for the LAPL Blog. Being queer himself, Klune believes it's important-now more than ever-to have accurate, positive queer representation in stories. TJ Klune is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling, Lambda Literary Award-winning author of The House in the Cerulean Sea, The Extraordinaries, and more.
