“I’m a figment of my own imagination.” Morgan cites a lifetime of voracious, eclectic reading, much of it nonfiction, decades of listening quietly to and roaming the world outside her door, and nearly nine years of reading, commenting on, and doing beta for some of the vast sea of writing others have created about a specific television series as some of the inspiration behind her first foray into writing for publication. Other inspirations? The author’s only response is a chuckle, an arched eyebrow, and a reference to forests and trees. J.G. Morgan lives quietly in a garden-level studio apartment near Lake Ontario in the northeast US. Both grown children, a son and a daughter and her family, live near the author.
