Welcome to The Hatbox Letter – the official site for Laura LeMond and her poignant tale of lost love.
In her twenties, Laura discovered a true love story that had once belonged to her beloved grandmother, Gladys—fondly known as Gamama. The story stayed with her, sparking a passion for writing that she pursued in the quiet hours of early mornings and late nights. As a dedicated single mom with a full-time career, writing became both her escape and her calling.
Attending the Texas Book Festival in Austin annually and meeting inspiring authors gave Laura the confidence to embark on her own literary journey. When she began researching her grandmother’s past, a story unfolded—one that captured her imagination and her heart. Researching her family history in the Texas Panhandle and St Joseph Missouri helped her write the historical fictional story that became The Hatbox Letter.
