Yet
while
the
stakes
of
Noah
and
Joanne’s
romance
are
made
all
the
higher
with
Noah’s
job
as
a
rabbi,
whereas
Erin’s
husband
Simon
is
an
entertainment
executive,
Erin
has
noted
the
ways
in
which
her
story
and
the
one
she
wrote
for
the
screen
align.
“It’s
not
always
like
tangible
things
I
can
point
to,”
Erin
told
Today.com
in
an
interview
published
Sept.
30.
“The
emotional
journey,
I
would
say,
is
very
accurate
to
my
experience
of
meeting
my
husband.”
And,
much
like
Joanne
considers
in
the
show,
Erin
did
reach
a
point
in
which
she
had
to
consider
converting
to
Judaism
for
Simon.
But
unlike
Joanne
in
season
one
of
the
series,
Erin
did
ultimately
opt
to
convert—though
not
without
serious
thought.
