Old Shame is In-Universe only


* CreatorBacklash: Andrews stated in an interview that prior to the publication of ''Literature/FlowersInTheAttic,'' she had completed several books, including one so shocking and full of sex that she hid it away in a trunk for fear of what her family would think of it. Many fans suspect that ''My Sweet Audrina'' was that book.

* RecycledScript: In ''Literature/PetalsOnTheWind'' (published several years before ''My Sweet Audrina), there is a scene in which a character is so frightened of sex that she locks herself in the bathroom for several hours on her wedding night. ''My Sweet Audrina'' has a very similar scene. It's speculated that Andrews, believing that ''Audrina'' would never see the light of day (see OldShame above), may have borrowed the bathroom scene in ''Petals'' from the unpublished draft of ''Audrina'', only to later change her mind and publish ''Audrina'' with the scene still intact.

** Andrews also stated in a rare interview that ''My Sweet Audrina'' was partially based on an incident from her own childhood, where she was trapped in "a lonely valley" and had to run as fast as she could to save herself from an unspecific sinister fate. Andrews was haunted by the fact that as an adult, she could not recall exactly what she ran away from, and her later morbid musings on what really happened (and what ''might'' have happened had she not escaped) turned into the character of Audrina, who both did and did not experience a terrible trauma that she can't remember.

* WriteWhatYouKnow: V.C. Andrews was herself adept at playing the stock market (and was serious enough about it to install [[TechnologyMarchesOn a stock ticker in her home]]). Like Audrina, she attributed her stock market success to her precognition. It isn't hard to imagine her selecting stocks with a pendulum.
** In a more grim example of Write What You Know, Andrews herself suffered from a fall down a staircase while in high school, leaving her permanently disabled. It's not much of a stretch that a woman with such a wild imagination might have wondered what would have happened if she hadn't survive the fall.
