## Trivia

* Allison Draper was the first character the author created in 2019 A.D. when *The Haven* was in initial development.
* "Allison" is a variant of the name "Alice", which was a common name in England in the 16th century. "Draper" is an English surname denoting someone who made and/or sold woolen cloth.
	+ Allison's surname ("Draper") initially came from the surname of American actress Polly Draper, who is the mother of American actors Nathaniel Wolff and Alexander Wolff, who were two of the author's favorite actors. However, after learning that the brothers (and, ultimately, the family) were Leftists, the author stopped liking them and watching their films, as they do not want to support Leftists.
* In one of the initial drafts of *The Haven,* Draper and Rivers married each other at the end of the novel and and had four children together - Katydid Rivers, Beetle Rivers II, and Aster Rivers. This was ultimately scrapped as it would make the novel primarily focus on Draper and Rivers' relationship instead of focusing on Draper's character arc. The character names may be reused in the author's future works.
* Draper was slated to be rebooted for a stand-alone in *These Alien Dragons*, but it was ultimately scrapped so the series wouldn't be "milked" to death.
