  • Digitizing the 548 Fragile WWII Letters
    May 11 2026
    Before the writing, before the organizing — preservation. In this first method episode, Julie shares how she digitized over 500 wartime letters between her grandparents Woodrow and Vera Bonner, written across the Pacific in 1945 and 1946. The free tool she used, why fragile letters and a child's handwriting got photographed before anything else, and the systematic transcription quirks that ended up revealing something about her grandparents she would not have learned any other way. If you have a box of family letters in a closet, this is the episode that tells you where to start. Loose Pearls: A Marriage in Letters, 1945–1946 is available on Kindle and audiobook. Paperback and hardcover coming soon.

  • The Eight Week Pearl Hunt: A WWII Soldier Story
    May 9 2026
    In February 1946, my paternal grandfather, Woodrow Bonner, found a string of cultured pearls in a shop in Kobe and wrote to my grandmother, Vera, that he was going to try to buy them. He couldn't. What followed was an eight-week hunt across occupied Japan, three loose pearls in a wooden crate, and a string of letters that never quite explained. This is the story the book is named after. // Loose Pearls: A Marriage in Letters, 1945–1946 Next episode: how I sorted 548 letters, and you can also do this if you have written documents of your family.
