A to Z Challenge theme!

I'm participating in the A to Z challenge for the month of April. A large number go bloggers and quite a few writer buddies are involved so it should be lots of fun.

My theme is Behind the Story--things I know about the story,  what influenced me to write the story, inspirations, real life issues surrounding the writing...and I frankensteined a space alien creature with photoshop! And in general my blogs will be short, lol.
