“I didn’t see it then. I didn’t notice anything odd.

I love thinking about a character’s ‘every day’ and this helps me a lot when I’m developing characters. In ‘The Day No One Woke Up’ I felt like I could really explore the nitty gritty of this through Ana who we see in just three days of her life - one in which she wakes up to find everyone is asleep and cannot be woken.
