Julia Brewer Daily wrote her first novel, No Names To Be Given, when she was over 50. This book was inspired by her own experience as an adopted child from a maternity home hospital in New Orleans. She’s also the host of the Authors Over 50 podcast. Her mission is to encourage those in mid-life and beyond to live their best lives in what she calls Life’s Sweetest Third. This is a fascinating conversation about what happened when Julia went looking for and started writing her story.

We talk about:

- The personal story behind Julia’s first book

- Julia experience of being adopted

- Why it took so long for Julia to write her book

- What it was like finding her birth family

- Learning about and beginning to understand her birth mother’s experience

- Julia’s writing process and her second book

- Julia’s podcast and mission

- How new writers can best get going

- What helps writers fulfil their dreams

And more!
