'June' is the concluding edition of Julie's three-generation 'Life and Soul' series, which takes place in her home town.
A creative Airdrie writer who took inspiration from her home town for her work is preparing to release the much-anticipated final part of her novel trilogy - on a suitably spiritual date.Life as in the everyday life and struggles of a working class family and group of friends; and Soul describing the people they have lost, and if, or how, they are still "present".
Each story weaves between character narratives of the strength of grief, the power of imagination and spiritual visitation - all set within the context of a classic kitchen sink drama. At school she notices her family seems different to what's "normal" and begins asking complicated questions about her real father.
Julie, 51, told Lanarkshire Live: "The books are based on what people say to bring comfort into grief, such as, 'I was visited by a robin today, I think it was him', or 'I felt a shiver when you said his name'.
