"Out today, Woman Down centers on writer Petra Rose, an author who has writer's block and checks into a remote cabin to finish her next book. Petra, who took a hiatus after fans blamed her for a producer's decision to cut a fan-favorite character out of the film adaptation of her book A Terrible Thing, has "learned the hard way what happens when the internet turns on you," a synopsis states."
""Just please keep in mind that while writers do take from their own lives, and some of the themes may mirror those of my own life in ways, this is in no way a replica of my journey or my morals, nor is it a reflection of how I feel about my peers or this industry," she wrote in an author's note for the novel. "This is simply a fun journey the characters took me on and nothing more. Please, I beg of you, do not try to make ties between my personal life and this story, as there are none.""
""overall, there are very few similarities between my life and this book.""
Colleen Hoover released Woman Down, which follows Petra Rose, a frustrated writer with writer's block who retreats to a remote cabin to finish her next novel. Petra previously took a hiatus after fans blamed her for a producer's decision to remove a fan-favorite character from a film adaptation of her earlier book A Terrible Thing. The synopsis notes that Petra "learned the hard way what happens when the internet turns on you." Hoover emphasized that the story is fictional and bears very few similarities to her life while continuing to adapt her own work for film and outline future novels.
