#RecklessTheNovel

In RECKLESS, my characters finally get out of Portland, at least some of the time. Goat Hill Farm and the Central Office live entirely in my imagination, but many Portland scenes are inspired by real-life locations, many of which are shared below. RECKLESS has the bonus of getting its very own theme song! I am a huge Amy Shark fan and she released her single C'MON while I was deep in final edits. The lyrics could be Alex singing to KJ, and when I saw that Amy chose to film her video for the song in a space that looks remarkably like the squat where Alex and her friends shelter in UNLEASHED, the coincidence was too perfect not to share.

For comparison, here are pictures I took from inside the "real" squat.
