I have never won the lottery. But if I did, I wouldn’t tell you. No offense, I wouldn’t tell anyone; I’ve read too many news stories about people who win tons of money, only to have their lives go to shit because of it. Though I’ve yet to read one that’s as uniquely problematic as what happens in Marissa Stapley’s suspenseful noir novel Lucky (paperback, Kindle, audiobook). In the following email interview, Stapley not only tells who Lucky is, and what shit she’s gotten herself into, but what inspired this possible tale of woe.
