Q: What was your inspiration/impetus for writing "Letters to Mom"?
Julie: I was toying with the concept of unusual living arrangements and igniting them with the torch of "What if".
One of the ideas that leapt into my head was a character living with a ghost and a murderer - that was an interesting "Three's Company" concept for sure. Then, as occasionally (and blissfully) happens to me, the character arrived in my brain fully formed as a young boy and, wow, did he live an interesting life (as in the "may you live in interesting times" ancient curse type of "interesting life"). From there the story wrote itself in only a few hours.
