Have you ever wanted to ask the author of your favorite series questions? How did you get started? What point of view do you prefer writing in and why? How do you feel about your story coming to life? Is there another character that you’d like to tell the Divergent story from?
I know I’ve wondered all of those questions and more.
Well Popsugar was able to sit down with Veronica Roth the author of the Divergent series and ask her some question!
POPSUGAR: Divergent was originally written from Four’s point of view, right?
Veronica Roth: Yeah, it was the super rough draft. I’ve been calling it the “proto-draft.” It happened before the rough draft, which sounds crazy. It was just was a couple of pages from his perspective, and it just didn’t work in the same way that Tris’s voice worked because she’s kind of surprising as the narrator of that particular story. But as I wrote the series, he became more complicated and his story started to feel urgent also. So, it’s great that they let me keep writing about him!”
