Julia lives with her husband and daughter in Huntington Beach, CA.

Julia Walton received an MFA in creative writing from Chapman University.
"Leave the Paros family alone." That was Yia Yia's second rule for life. Now Leo's father thinks a self-defense class is exactly what his son needs to "man up."
But Leo's anxiety just caused a fight at school, and though he didn't lie, he wasn't exactly honest about how it all went down. "Bad luck follows lies." That was the first rule for life that Leo's Greek grandmother, Yia Yia, gave him before she died. From the author of Words on Bathroom Walls-now a major motion picture-comes a romance in the spirit of Dear Evan Hansen about overcoming anxiety-and about finding love and friendship in unlikely places.
