An Interview With Patricia McCormick

For an interview of such a dark nature we traveled to a quiet friendly location. We crossed the three blocks to Starbucks, in heavy rain with a single computer hidden within a small pink bag. Upon arriving we had found that she had already beaten us there. From there we all hit it off, questions came naturally. And we were astounded by her trip to Nepal. She knew she wanted to write a book on sex trafficking, and she wanted to go to Nepal or India. She actually went inside one brothel, a place where people are forced to act like prostitutes and give the money they make to the people who run the place, usually a woman. In the end she gave us a great insite into what she saw, and also a few great places we could call for more adventures into New York.
