Character Interview with June Calloway

 

Today I’m sitting down with June Calloway. She's an amateur sleuth, part-time troublemaker, and the woman you definitely want on your side if there’s a mystery brewing in town.

Q: June, you’ve solved everything from decades-old cold cases to murders that shook the whole community. Do you ever get tired of mysteries?
June: Tired? No. Frustrated, sometimes. I’d like a day where no one gets kidnapped/murdered, of course, but mysteries are part of how my brain works. If I see a puzzle, I have to solve it.

Q: Which case so far has stayed with you the most?
June: The murdered girl from 1998. Finding out what happened to her and giving her family closure. That one hit me hard. It reminded me why I do what I do.

Q: Be honest… how much coffee does it take for you to function during an investigation?
June: (laughs) More than my doctor would approve of. I’m pretty sure the local coffee shop stays in business because of me. Good thing I am friends with the owners, Gabe and Nate.

Q: Do you ever get scared?
June: Constantly. I just don’t stay scared. Fear’s useful — keeps me alert. But I refuse to let it run the show.

Q: You’ve uncovered corruption, murder, and more secrets than I can count. How do you unwind after all that?
June: Tea, a good book, and pretending my phone is switched off. (It usually isn’t.)

Q: If you could take a vacation with no murders, mysteries, or corruption to unravel, where would you go?
June: A quiet cabin by a lake. Just me, a stack of books, and maybe a fishing pole. But knowing my luck, I’d find a body in the water by day three.

Q: Last question: how do you feel about being written into all these crimes?
June: (side-eyes me) You know, it’s a little suspicious that bad things only seem to happen around me. Starting to wonder if you’re the real mastermind.

That’s it for today’s character chat! What would you ask June if you could sit down with her? Drop your questions in the comments. She might just answer in a future interview!
