Kate asked David Williams:

I live in Durham, but I went to college in Lancaster and lived there for several years before moving to North Carolina. Reading your book and seeing names like "Stauffers" and "Lititz" fills me with an interesting mix of rabid excitement and nostalgic homesickness. Just wanted to share? (The question mark is just so this counts as a question to get sent to you!) :)

David Williams Hope you're enjoying it, Kate! As a non-native of Lancaster, I got all author-anxious about possibly misrepresenting that area. There's only so much that visits/research can inform an outsider. But when I went up to Lititz to start my book tour, the folks there really seemed to resonate to it. It's such a lovely region of the country, and Lititz was a remarkably pretty little town. Thanks for dropping me the note! Peace, David
