Goodreads asked C.L. Spillard:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

C.L. Spillard The elderly lady who lived next door but 1 to the pub in the village when I was a kid (we moved out in 1980) would always stand at her door when we (village kids) walked to/from school.
A glimpse of the house interior showed something like the 1940s.
Nobody, it seemed, ever spoke to her.
She was called Nelly. Pretty sure she lived alone.
Now I wonder what her story was...
