Lynna assured me that Isabella would be able to do it and after doing some acting tests with her, I agreed with Lynna and wrote the story around the character of Chloe. I had thought about putting a child in Fragments but didn't know if it would be possible to get someone to commit to doing this for 2 to 3 years.
