Waukesha County writer Amy E. Reichert s The Kindred Spirits Supper Club has a shaker full of ingredients for quality romantic comedy: a self-conscious heroine, a handsome available man, a bucolic setting and a fizzy ghost who doubles as a yenta.
In Kindred Spirits, unemployed journalist Sabrina (please excuse my involuntary shudder) is back home with family in Wisconsin Dells as she heals from some wounds. The Monroes have a secret: The women can see and communicate with ghosts of the recently (and occasionally not-so-recently) deceased, helping them move on to the next world. As with corporeal forms of human entanglement, Sabrina would prefer not to get involved, but over time the perky ghost Molly has become a combination of BFF, imaginary friend and romantic guardian angel for her.

When Don Lee Sent a Longshot Email to Will Johnson
March 15, 2021
In 2016, I reached out to Will Johnson a stranger at the time because I was in desperate need of professional help.
A novel of mine, titled
Lonesome Lies Before Us, was scheduled to be published the following year. It was about an alt-country musician who’d never quite made it, and there were three spots in the book where I needed to put down some lyrics, which were supposed to convey that the character was a good songwriter. The problem was, I wasn’t a songwriter. I had only a rudimentary grasp of music; I played a little guitar, that was all. I took a stab at writing some verses. They were, in fact, the first lyrics I’d ever attempted, and they were, I knew, terrible. I needed someone to save me.
