Goodreads asked Ethel Rohan:

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

Ethel Rohan Oh, I love this question, thank you. I'm obsessed with mysteries. My godfather, the youngest of my mother's eight siblings, disappeared from his Irish home shortly after I was born. No one ever heard from him again, and no one appears to know what happened to him. His disappearance both saddens me and fires up my imagination. His life, and the rumors, mystery, grief, and legacy surrounding his disappearance could be a great plot for a book.

Hi Ethel! I loved In The Event of Contact, and I was wondering if you could tell us about what inspired you and led you to write those stories? I'm especially curious about the first one!

Tony Lovell asked Ethel Rohan:

What was your inspiration behind The Weight of Him, specifically regarding Billy and his weight? Billy is the first character in all the books I've ever read whom I've truly found relatable, and his weight and his desire to lose half himself were the reasons for this.

Diane McPhail asked Ethel Rohan:

Hi, Ethel. Have left reviews on Amazon, B&N, and Goodreads, plus the tiny blurb allowed on Twitter. And on both my FB pages. Is there anywhere else I can tell readers about this wonderful work you have given the world?
