I put it back and left the shop.
That night I dreamt of Lizzie sitting at the end of my bed and she told me, 'I have something to tell you about my father. He has a lot to answer for.'
It was one of the creepiest and most unsettling dreams I'd ever had but I ignored it, tried to go back to sleep.
I had the same dream every night for a week. So I decided to write the dream down hoping it would go away. That was the very beginning of See What I Have Done.
I had no idea it would take me 11 years to write it.(less)

Like See What I Have Done, this new novel also came to me in a dream: a woman driving her car toward a mountain. In that car is a child. Nothing is what it seems.

Quotes by Sarah Schmidt (?)

“How far a woman could travel if she really put her mind to it. And I put my mind to it.”
― Sarah Schmidt, See What I Have Done

“I ate and drank what I wanted in Paris. Butter, duck fat, liver fat, triple-cream brie, deep cherry-red wines, pear, clementine and lavender jelly, cr猫me cakes, caviar, escargot in saut茅ed pine nuts and garlic butter. I did what the French did, I licked my fingers, didn't care if people saw, what they thought. Father would've hated it, would've told me I was uncouth. I ate everything up, ate his money, was delightful everywhere I went. I learned how to wrap my tongue around accented vowels, spoke to this stranger and that. Nobody knew me, didn't expect anything from me. I wanted to stay like that forever.”
― Sarah Schmidt

“There was a time in my life when I believed I could have a place in the world, that I deserved bigger things than the average young woman because I could imagine an existence outside of Fall River, outside family life. Then I turned twenty-five and everything I knew about myself all but ended. It was the year Father tried to marry me off.”
