A deeply personal experience of grief gave her new insight into not only the novel-in-progress, but her family’s experience of loss as it was passed down through her family line. The novel became The Astonishing Color of After, a glorious, complex story of love, family, magic, and loss. Emily joins us to talk about

What her offical bio doesn’t say is that her child was murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary.
