Lavaille Lavette often would climb onto the second-story rooftop of her Opelousas-area home at an early age to escape and capture her thoughts as she took an initial step into the world of writing.
Family members, Lavette recalls, would sometimes question those episodes of private refuge, but those moments when she entered into her own fictional reality are something Lavette still cherishes.
